Description

Boldly Struck 1846-C Quarter Eagle

1846-C $2 1/2 AU55 NGC. Variety 7-F. A fire at the Charlotte Mint in 1844 prevented production of Charlotte gold coins for two years. Upon resumption, a scant 4,808 1846-C Quarter Eagles were struck, and it is among the toughest C-mint issues of any denomination to obtain in finer grades. This sharply struck and unmarked orange-gold example has ample luster and shows the normal areas of granularity from die rust in the vicinity of the date and in intermittent areas of the reverse. Multiple sets of clashmarks (as made) frame the devices.(#7741) (Registry values: P2)
