Description

Elusive 1846 Quarter Eagle, AU58

1846 $2 1/2 AU58 PCGS. Breen-6181. Breen's "overdate" variety, which shows recutting on all four digits. The cause of this is likely a defective punch, similar to the 1846/'5' eagle and the WB-102 and WB-103 1846 half dollar. Glowing luster illuminates the borders and device outlines, and neither the fields nor the crisply struck devices display unpleasant marks. Just 21,598 pieces were struck. Population: 2 in 58, 8 finer (6/08).(Registry values: P2)

Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
