Description

1820 25C Small 0 MS64 PCGS. B-4, R.2. A later die state with die rust scattered across both dies. This specimen is the third finest of just four Mint State examples of the variety that Steve Tompkins records in Early United States Quarters 1796-1838. This impressive near-Gem has a moderately prooflike obverse and shimmering cartwheel luster across the reverse. Light gold toning illuminates the borders. A tiny spot is concealed near the left edge of the left (facing) wing, but this sharply struck piece is otherwise smooth and attractive. 1820 quarters are scarce and underrated in VF and better grades. Population: 2 in 64, 2 finer (3/09).
