Description
1870-S Two and a Half Liberty, AU58
Thoroughly Lustrous and Attractive
1870-S $2 1/2 AU58 PCGS. From a mintage of only 16,000
pieces, the 1870-S quarter eagle is surprisingly collectible,
although any Mint State piece is a rarity, and high-end AU coins
are scarce. This near-Mint example displays deep orange-gold patina
with ample luster and just a trace of wear. Some strike softness on
the eagle's left (facing) leg is nearly unavoidable. PCGS
Population: 21 in 58 (1 in 58+), 21 finer (10/25).(Registry values: P2)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25KG, PCGS# 7812, Greysheet# 8399)
Weight: 4.18 grams
Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
