Mint State 1834 Classic Two and a Half

1834 $2 1/2 Classic MS61 NGC. Breen-6138, Small Head, R.1. The reduced weight of the No Motto 1834 quarter eagles allowed them to remain in circulation. This was in contrast with their Motto predecessors, which were nearly decimated by melting since their bullion content exceeded face. But although many 1834 Classic half eagles have survived, those are usually in circulated grades, since there were virtually no collectors setting them aside. The present piece, however, lacks noticeable highpoint wear, and is also devoid of consequential marks. Luster is especially bright near design recesses.(Registry values: P1)
