Description

1824/2 B-1 Quarter, VF30
Better Capped Bust Date

1824/2 25C B-1, R.3, VF30 PCGS. Tompkins Die State 1/1. Iridescent colors deepen to steel-blue, violet, and orange-gold shades on both sides of this midgrade 1824/2 quarter. Scarce in all grades, the 1824/2 was struck from a single die pair, and the overdate feature is indistinct on most examples. Traces of the underdigit appear below the base and at the top opening triangular opening of 4. Tiny marks are muted by wear, while all of the design elements are fully outlined. A reported mintage of 168,000 pieces includes both 1824 and 1825-dated quarters, all of which were struck in 1825. It is thought only the first delivery warrant represents the 1824/2 pieces, a mere 16,000 coins. Population: 16 in 30, 64 finer (6/19).
