Description
Rare Mint Error, 1855 Quarter Eagle
Struck Off-Center, MS63
1855 Liberty Quarter Eagle--Struck Off-Center at 5
O'clock-- MS63 PCGS. A rare mint error for this issue,
with the coin struck off-center at 5 o'clock. Remarkably
attractive, with semiprooflike fields that show faint die
striations. The design elements are crisply reproduced on both
sides, while a few tiny marks restrict the grade. The 1855
(non-error) quarter eagle is a conditionally scarce issue that is
seldom seen in MS63 condition or finer.
