Low-Mintage 1868 Quarter Eagle, MS61

1868 $2 1/2 MS61 NGC. The 1868 quarter eagle mintage, like many of the era, was a stingy 3,625 pieces at a time when gold coins did not much circulate anyway, except in the far West. The certified survivors today average only about Choice AU. In MS61 this piece is one of 13 so graded at NGC, but there are only two finer (3/09). The surfaces are highly reflective and somewhat prooflike as expected for a low-mintage issue, and the abrasions are moderate for the grade.(Registry values: P2)
