Description

Radiant 1852-C Quarter Eagle, AU58

1852-C $2 1/2 AU58 PCGS. Variety 1. With just 9,772 pieces coined, the 1852-C is scarce in any grade. Heavy circulation has made a near-Mint example a condition rarity, and many pieces that appear in the Census Report and Population Report are resubmissions. This coin displays pale orange-gold color on the obverse with emerald accents, while the reverse exhibits lighter yellow-gold color with a hint of green. Each side possesses considerable radiance, though the central devices are softly struck as always. Only light friction affects the highpoints, though a pinscratch passes through the coronet and an abrasion is noted to the right of the date. Population: 7 in 58, 3 finer (6/09).(Registry values: P2)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25HS, PCGS# 7764, GSID# 8368)

Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
Weight: 4.18 grams
AGW: 0.12095oz
Mintage: 9,772
