Description
1858 Quarter, Flashy MS66
Rim-Toned With Great Luster
1858 25C MS66 PCGS. Generous luster combined with untoned
silver-white centers and rim patina in shades of gold and rose
produce top-notch eye appeal. The strike is sharp, but it is the
luster that first grabs the viewer's attention. Two major die
cracks show on the reverse. One links the tops of UN with the
denticles on each side, to the two outside leaves, and back to the
denticles. The other links the bases of ES OF A. With a mintage
exceeding 7.3 million pieces for this issue, it is unsurprising
that some dies seem not to be accounted for in Larry Briggs' now
nearly 25-year-old reference. Only five obverse and five reverse
dies are described. Briggs himself writes that "several other
varieties exist, none seemingly rare." Population: 13 in 66 (1 in
66+), 2 finer (11/16).Purchased from Jason Carter (10/2006); Eugene H. Gardner Collection, Part IV (10/2015), lot 98444.(Registry values: P2)
