Lot Description

1806 Draped Bust Quarter. B-2. Rarity-2. AU-50 (PCGS). Gumetal-blue and gray with dashes of lighter silver on the reverse. Pleasing surfaces with minimal marks from handling, and the reverse die shows several thin die cracks, including the vertical one that extends from the final A in AMERICA to the O in OF, with branches of finer cracks seen from the rims. Scarce at this grade level and desirable collector coin in this later die state.
