Losbeschreibung

1842-C Liberty Head Quarter Eagle. Winter-1, the only known dies. Fine-15 (PCGS). Evenly patinated in medium straw-gold, both sides retain bold outline definition to all major design elements. Quarter eagle production at the Charlotte Mint dipped below 10,000 coins in 1842, the first time such a limited mintage was posted for the Liberty Head design type. The 1842-C was produced to the extent of just 6,729 coins, survivors scarce even in lower circulated grades, as here. A coin that is sure to catch the eye of astute Southern gold specialists. Provenance: From the Maurice Snow Collection. PCGS# 7724. NGC ID: 25GH. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
