Description

Significant Mint State 1802/1 Quarter Eagle

1802/1 $2 1/2 MS62 NGC. Breen-6118, Bass-3009, R.4. This canary-gold piece is unmarked for the grade and displays considerable shimmering luster. Moderate softness of strike in the centers is balanced by sharp details throughout the remainder of the design. A vertical die line from the upper left border of the shield to the scroll above identifies the die pairing, one of three known for the date, all of which share a common obverse die. All 1802 Quarter Eagles are traditionally listed as overdates. However, unlike the obvious overdate on all 1802/1 Half Eagles and some 1802/1 Silver Dollars, traces of the 1 underdigit on the 1802 Quarter Eagle are not conclusive.(#7650) (Registry values: P6)
