Description

1840 $2 1/2 AU53 NGC. The first-year-of-issue 1840 Liberty Head quarter eagle saw a relatively small mintage of 18,859 coins. Yellow-gold surfaces exhibit traces of luster in the recesses along with well struck design elements, except for the usual softness on the left (facing) leg. A scattering of minute marks do not detract.
