Description

1833 25C MS61 NGC. B-1a, R.2. The main difference between B-1 and B-2 coins is the number of stripes on the shield on the reverse. On B-1 coins, such as this one, the majority of pieces are known to be struck from a rusted obverse and reverse die. As cited in the Browning text, "This is the most common variety but scarce if sharp and struck before the dies rusted." This pearl-gray example has golden accents around the margins, and shows numerous small abrasions on each side.
