Description
Lustrous 1815 Quarter
MS65, B-1
1815 25C MS65 NGC. Ex: Ashland City Collection. B-1, the
only known dies, R.1. This is the premier issue in the Capped Bust
quarter series. While it is popular for first-year type purposes,
the 1815 is probably more desirable as a low mintage, conditionally
challenging date. A mere 89,235 pieces were produced from a single
obverse and reverse die marriage. While circulated and lower Mint
State survivors are available with more or less frequency, Gems are
undeniably rare with just 10 MS65 examples known to NGC and
PCGS.The present example is an early die state with no clash marks, and reverse repunching on the base of the second T in STATES. The A in STATES is also repunched. This is an uncommonly well struck representative of the design with fully denticulated borders and crisp definition over virtually all features. Both sides display frosty luster, and present as nearly untoned, save for some wispy light gray streaks. A handful of grade-consistent ticks are noted, and a tiny planchet void in the obverse field before Liberty's nose is a worthwhile pedigree marker. Census: 7 in 65, 6 finer (10/08).
From The Scott Rudolph Collection.
