Description

1868-S Quarter Eagle, MS62
Rare So Fine, Green CAC Sticker

1868-S $2 1/2 MS62 PCGS. CAC. The 1868-S claims a healthy mintage for a quarter eagle of this vintage (34,000 coins), but do not be fooled. This is a conditionally challenging San Francisco issue that proves downright rare in MS62, particularly for collectors in search of CAC-approved examples. Rose and yellow-gold intermingle across frosted surfaces and well-struck devices. Only the upper curls and the eagle's left (facing) leg are incomplete. A small milling mark appears left of star 11. Population: 5 in 62, 6 finer. CAC: 2 in 62, 1 finer (11/20).(Registry values: P2)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25KC, PCGS# 7808, Greysheet# 8397)

Weight: 4.18 grams
