Lot Description

1824/2 Capped Bust Quarter. B-1, the only known dies. Rarity-3. Fine-12 (NGC). Dusky slate-gray patina blankets surfaces that retain bold definition for all devices. A couple of minor, ancient handling marks here and there are noted, but otherwise both sides are pleasingly smooth for a well circulated survivor of this challenging design type. Provenance: From Heritage's sale of the John W. McCloskey Collection, February 2022, lot 45409. PCGS# 38972. NGC ID: 23RR. Click here for certification details from NGC.
