Description

1818/5 B-1 Quarter, MS65
Condition Census Quality
Listed in the
Guide Book

1818/5 25C B-1, R.2, MS65 NGC. Tompkins Die State 2/2. Both sides are heavily clashed. Although not designated as such on the NGC insert, this is an example of the 1818 8 Over 5 Guide Book variety, with the flag of the underlying 5 clear within the upper loop of the second 8 in the date. This remarkable Gem remains completely brilliant. Pinpoint definition appears on the stars, dentils, curls, feathers, and olive leaves, with just a touch of softness on the right (facing) talon. Ticks are microscopic. An incredible survivor that qualifies for the Condition Census. NGC reports eight submissions specifically designed as 1818/5 (both B-1 and B-3 varieties) with three coins finer. It is possible the service has failed to designate additional high-end representatives like this coin (11/19).
