Description

PCGS 1860-O MS 65. A peerless gem of the finest quality, the fields are deeply prooflike and very flashy. The striking details are fully brought up on the head of Liberty and the eagle, and even the peripheral stars are well defined. An exciting No Motto quarter and a rare find in gem condition. Population: 3 in 65, 3 finer (4/94).
Formerly sold as lot 232 of the Garrett Collection (Stack's, 3/76), where it was described as, "A pristine, wholly proof-like two-tone GEM. The faint frosty overtones one usually sees on the coinage in the 1880's. This coin simply could not be equalled." In 1976 this lovely coin realized a whopping $2,600 plus the buyer's commission. From the Faraday collection.
