Description
1838 B-1, Capped Bust Quarter, MS62
Final-Year Issue, Desirable for Type
1838 25C MS62 PCGS. B-1, R.1. The B-1 variety is the only
die pair for this final year of the Capped Bust quarters, with
366,000 pieces produced by the Philadelphia Mint. This example is
brilliant-white, frosted, and highly lustrous. A strong strike on
Liberty and the eagle is evident but a touch of weakness resides at
the peripheries, where several stars are flat. The Capped Bust
design yielded to the Seated Liberty motif in 1838, with 466,000 of
the new design also struck during the year. Population: 13 in 62,
39 finer (1/14).From the collection of Donald E. Bently, sold for the benefit of the Bently Foundation.(Registry values: P2)
