1837 Capped Bust Quarter, MS65
Popular B-2 Variety

1837 25C MS65 PCGS. B-2, R.1. More than 250,000 Capped Bust quarters were struck in 1837, with six die varieties known for the date.

Glimpses of prooflike reflectivity are seen around the reverse devices. Sharply struck except for a few left-side star. Population: 10 in 65, 8 finer (8/13).(Registry values: P1)
