Description
Key 1852-O Quarter, MS62
Tied for Second Finest
1852-O 25C MS62 PCGS. Only 96,000 pieces were struck of the
1852-O quarter and remarkably few are known today, especially above
VF. Those that are seen are generally weakly struck, and many have
a "saltwater" surface. This piece shows some softness of details on
the obverse, but the reverse is remarkably well defined. The
obverse also shows some porosity, but the reverse is smooth and
sparkles with mint luster. The obverse has smoky golden and lilac
toning, while again the reverse presents a stark contrast and is
nearly brilliant. This piece is tied for second finest certified
with one NGC coin. The finest known is a MS63 NGC that sold in our
November 2007 Dallas Auction for an unprecedented $126,500.Ex: Auction '88 (Superior's Session, 7/1988), lot 119.(Registry values: P7)
