Description

1847 Quarter Eagle, Seldom-Seen MS62
Mintage Under 30,000 Coins

1847 $2 1/2 MS62 NGC. A low-mintage issue of fewer than 30,000 circulation strikes, the 1847 quarter eagle is usually found no better than AU condition. This yellow-gold example shows one abrasion out from the coronet between stars 5 and 6, and a small scrape below the forward bust truncation along with a few scattered, smaller marks together accounting for the grade. Ample luster and a bold strike produce good eye appeal. Census: 5 in 62, 4 finer (3/15).(Registry values: P2)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25H5, PCGS# 7744, Greysheet# 8268)

Weight: 4.18 grams

Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
