Description

1851-C Quarter Eagle, MS61+
Rarely Seen in Mint State

1851-C $2 1/2 MS61+ NGC. The 1851-C quarter eagle is a scarcer Charlotte issue with only 160 to 210 examples believed extant; AU pieces are typically the finest available to collectors, as Mint State coins, such this representative, are rare. Both sides show consistent green-gold patina with occasional overtones of coppery-orange. The strike is indistinct on the central hair curls and on the eagle's neck and left (facing) leg, not unusual for the issue. Census: 8 in 61 (1 in 61+), 5 finer (5/21).
Ex: Central States Signature (Heritage, 4/2015), lot 6079.
