Lot Description

Pretty pinkish-gold surfaces with a splash of reddish-rose patina adorning the upper reverse. Billowy mint luster is full in a satiny texture. This is a boldly struck example with expectably smooth surfaces at the assigned grade level. Conditionally rare for a heavily circulated San Francisco Mint quarter eagle issue with just 22,000 pieces produced, this inviting Choice example belongs in an advanced collection of Liberty Head gold coinage.
