Description
1818/5 B-1 Quarter, MS64+
Late Die State
1818/5 25C B-1, R.2, MS64+ NGC. This late die state example
has a heavy vertical die crack on the reverse, as well as other
cracks, clash marks, and flow lines. Following the War of 1812 and
the January 1816 fire that destroyed important equipment at the
Philadelphia Mint, coinage production finally returned to normal by
1818. The copper cents of 1816 and 1817, and the half dollars dated
1817 were the only coins made during those two years. Quarter
dollars and half eagles reappeared in 1818. This Choice Mint State
piece has frosty antique-silver luster and lovely gold toning. The
design motifs are bold. An exceptionally attractive Capped Bust
quarter. Census: 30 in 64 (2 in 64+), 12 finer (6/15).Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 23RJ, Variety PCGS# 38953, Base PCGS# 5323, GSID# 212696)
