Description
1834 Classic Two and a Half, MS64+
Sole Small Head Variety, HM-1
1834 $2 1/2 Small Head, HM-1, R.2, MS64+ PCGS. CAC.
Partially prooflike fields and lightly frosted devices add to the
eye appeal of this popular Small Head inaugural variety in this
short but interesting series. Three more varieties dated 1834
followed, all with Large Head portraits. The single Small Head die
marriage accounts for just over half of the surviving 1834 Classic
quarter eagles. Liberty's back curls descend in almost a straight
line on the Small Head HM-1 obverse while the third arrowhead
touches the right upright of the A in AMERICA at its midpoint. This
is a borderline Gem Uncirculated example, with vibrant lemon-gold
color and sharply defined design elements. CAC endorsement adds to
the appeal. Population (All 1834 varieties combined): 2 in 64+, 8
finer. CAC: 11 in 64, 7 finer (3/23).From The Early Aurum Collection.
