Delightful 1839 Quarter Eagle, AU58

1839 $2 1/2 AU58 PCGS. Breen 6148, the only known dies. This is an intriguing example of this final year Classic Head issue; heavy marks are visible in the fields; however, only a trace of wear can be seen and the fields have a considerable degree of reflectivity. This issue is rare in an absolute sense and even more so in Mint State grades, with only 13 such coins certified by the major services combined (6/08). The current piece thus becomes a delightful -- and affordable -- alternative. Housed in an early green label PCGS holder.(Registry values: P3)
