Description

Appealing 1837 Quarter, B-1, MS65

1837 25C MS65 PCGS. CAC. B-1, R.3. The 7 in the date is centered under the left edge of the hair curl, identifying the obverse. The reverse eagle has no tongue, the 2 has a curl base, and the base of E in UNITED is below that of T. According to Steve Tompkins' reference (2008) this is die stage 2/1, identified by a die crack traversing the lower obverse border and a crack from D through STATE to dentils.
Attractive luster exudes from surfaces toned in light to medium shades of sky-blue, bluish-purple, golden-orange, gray, and lime-green. A well executed strike sharpens the design elements except for softness in the centrils of the stars at the upper border, and both sides are nicely preserved. Great overall eye appeal. Population for the issue: 10 in 65, 8 finer (11/09).(Registry values: P1)
