Description
1873 Quarter Eagle in Gilt Copper
Judd-1333, PR63 Gilt
1873 $2 1/2 Quarter Eagle, Judd-1333, Pollock-1477, R.8, PR63
Gilt PCGS. CAC. Ex: Simpson. The regular Closed 3 quarter eagle
dies for the year. Struck in copper with a reeded edge. Reportedly,
only three or four examples exist, according to USPatterns.com. We
have been able to trace three pieces, the one in our September 2020
Simpson Sale, formerly from the Boosel and Bass collections,
another coin that appeared in Bowers and Ruddy's March 1981 sale of
the Roy Harte Collection (lot 658), and this piece -- apparently
the only gilt example known. Also struck in aluminum with another
three or four examples estimated extant. Unlike many gilt patterns,
this piece retains significant reflectivity in the fields. Pinpoint
strike details.Coin Index Numbers: (PCGS# 535190, Greysheet# 243882)
