Description

First-Year 1838-C Quarter Eagle, AU50

1838-C $2 1/2 AU50 PCGS. Variety 1, the only known die pairing. Dramatic repunching is seen on the mintmark, being first placed too low and touching the 3 of the date. The 1838-C is not only a scarce issue from an impressively low mintage of 7,880 pieces, but is also very popular as the premier quarter eagle from the Charlotte mint. This example displays average or better sharpness, with yellow-gold surfaces that are highlighted by blushes of copper-orange patina.(Registry values: P3)
