Description

1847-C Quarter Eagle, AU55
Pleasing Olive-Gold Coin

1847-C $2 1/2 AU55 NGC. Variety 1. Only 23,226 quarter eagles were struck in Charlotte in 1847 -- an amount that, while small, still places it among the most plentiful of the 1840s. This Choice AU coin maintains partial luster and is finer than the average certified example, which is apt to be four or five grade points lower. The obverse shows a few ticks under a loupe, more so than the reverse. Coloration is a pleasing olive-gold.
