Description
Appealing 1834 Capped Bust Quarter
B-1, MS65
1834 25C MS65 NGC. B-1, R.1. The 1834 quarter has a reported
mintage of 286,000 pieces. Engraver William Kneass prepared the
quarter dies for the year, with a possible assist from Christian
Gobrecht. Two obverse and four reverse dies were combined to strike
the five known die varieties of this issue. The present coin is an
example of the B-1 variety, characterized by the use of only two
lines in the stripes of the shield. The B-1 type is the most
available variety for this date, and probably comes second in the
die emission sequence.The present specimen features a sharp strike, with fine detail on all design elements. Attractive gray and lilac toning enhances the fields, with much original color and luster remaining in areas near the devices. This coin is an attractive example of an early quarter and would serve admirably in an advanced type set. Census: 10 in 65, 5 finer (12/08).(Registry values: P1)
