1862-S Two and a Half, AU55
Elusive in All Grades

1862-S $2 1/2 AU55 PCGS. With fewer than 100 examples surviving from a mintage of 8,000 pieces, the 1862-S quarter eagle is an underrated scarcity in all grades. Mint State pieces are prohibitively rare and out of reach for most collectors. This Choice AU example displays partially lustrous yellow-gold fields and well-detailed motifs. Trivial marks accompany the grade. Population: 9 in 55, 14 finer (9/16).
