Losbeschreibung

1857-O Liberty Quarter Eagle. Winter Variety One, the only known dies. MS-63 (PCGS). Numbering among the finest-known examples of this conditionally challenging Southern gold issue, this 1857-O Quarter eagle is sure to stand out as a highlight in even the finest specialized collection. Virtually full in strike on the obverse, the reverse exhibits only the expected degree of softness to the detail over the eagle's left (facing) leg and other select highpoints. Softly frosted in luster with handsome orange-gold color and none but a few wispy, easily overlooked abrasions.
