Description
Dazzling Gem 1878 Quarter Eagle
1878 $2 1/2 MS65 NGC. Perusal of NGC/PCGS population figures reveals the 1878 quarter eagle to be relatively plentiful through the MS63 level of preservation.

A couple of ticks and tiny copper spots do not detract. Census: 29 in 65, 4 finer (3/10).(Registry values: P2)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25KY, PCGS# 7828, GSID# 8303)
