Description

Magnificent 1802/1 Quarter Eagle in MS 63 NGC

1802/1 MS 63 NGC. B- 4. Typical for the issue, this piece has softly defined central details and shows no sign of adjustment marks. The 1802/1 is generally thought of as the second most "common" date of the Heraldic type. The term "common" must be used and understood within the context of this series, however, as no coin with a mintage of 3,035 pieces can be considered common in the absolute sense. Generally only seen in VF and XF condition, this is quite a find in select uncirculated. Other than the aforementioned central softness, there is little else worthy of mention on the surfaces of this piece. Rich orange-gold color, semi-reflective surfaces, and an attractive coin overall. Certainly one of the finest known of the date.
