Description

The Reiver 1825/2 B-1 Quarter, AU58

1825/2 25C AU58 NGC. B-1, R.5. Wide overdate; spine left from lowest arrow point. Pleasing for the antique silver and gold toning with a touch of peripheral blue on the obverse, well matched on the reverse with deep russet surrounding the devices and lettering, lighter silver elsewhere. Sharply struck and well preserved. Identifiable by a curling lint mark surrounding most of the final S of STATES. It would appear that this coin is double struck, with the first strike about 40% off-center, as a line of incuse dentils are found from the motto ribbon below the E, crossing the eagle's wing near the top, to the eagle's neck. No evidence of double striking is seen on the obverse. Certainly an unusual coin which is very rare, and near the top of the Condition Census for the variety.
