1840-O Seated Quarter, MS64
No Drapery, Seldom Seen Any Finer
1840-O 25C No Drapery MS64 NGC. Briggs 1-A, Flynn RPD-002.
An initial mintage of 382,200 pieces was struck with the original
Gobrecht design, without drapery beneath the elbow. Later in the
year, an additional 43,000 coins were made with drapery, giving the
1840-O two Guide Book entries. This is a fully struck
near-Gem No Drapery quarter, with die clashing visible within the
reverse shield and a widely repunched 8 in the date. Lustrous,
silver-gray surfaces display pearlescent mint luster, with faint
golden accents at the rims. A few minuscule marks are widely
scattered about the obverse, visible with a lens. All 1840-O No
Drapery coins have small dentils that are often incomplete, but on
this crisply struck piece the dentils are sharp and fully formed
throughout both sides. Examples of the No Drapery variant are rare
in Choice Uncirculated or finer grades, with just three finer
pieces reported by PCGS and NGC combined (all at NGC). Census: 5 in
64, 3 finer (2/19).(Registry values: P6)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 23SG, PCGS# 5393)
Weight: 6.68 grams
Metal: 90% Silver, 10% Copper
