Description

1815 B-1 Quarter, MS65
Census Level Example

1815 25C B-1, R.1, MS65 NGC. This early die state piece has delicate obverse and reverse clash marks. Coinage production was minimal at the U.S. Mint in 1815, limited to quarter dollars, half dollars, and half eagles. Little precious metal was deposited for coinage, and the supply of copper was exhausted the previous year. Less than $50,000 face value in coinage was struck that year. The total included 89,235 quarter dollars, and most of those coins were struck at the request of a New Orleans bank. This satiny Gem has brilliant silver luster and delicate gold toning. The devices are boldly detailed with exceptional eye appeal. A few dark rifts are noted, primarily on the obverse. Census: 8 in 65 (2 in 65+), 6 finer (6/15).
