1806/4 $2.50 Stars 8x5 MS (PCGS#7654)

Summer 2025 Global Showcase Auction U.S. Coins

Lot Description: BD Die State b/b. Our multiple offerings in this sale notwithstanding, this is a very challenging issue to locate irrespective of numeric grade, while at the AU-58 level the 1806/4 quarter eagle also adds condition rarity to the mix. Rich, vivid color in deep olive and brighter medium gold greet the viewer from both sides. Softness of strike in the centers is typical of both the type and die pairing, but the absence of all but light wear has left plenty of bold to sharp definition toward the borders. Abundant satin luster also remains to further confirm a brief stint in circulation and uphold the validity of the desirable AU-58 grade from PCGS. A coin that will excite advanced gold enthusiasts, and whose offering here will result in spirited bidding.
