Conditionally Rare 1855-O Arrows Quarter, MS64 PCGS

1855-O 25C Arrows MS64 PCGS. Obverse 1, Reverse A. Easily identified by a boldly struck mintmark that id high and slightly left of the crotch. A die crack develops from the dentils, through the tail of Q, to the left serif of U, and back to the tip of the second talon. Very few of the originally minted 176,000 Quarters were saved from circulation, and Mint State examples are now considered R.7+ by Briggs. This is sustained by the certification services where only four coins have reached the MS64 tier with only a single example finer at NGC. Well struck throughout with colorful copper-golden, russet, crimson, and sea-green shades that seem to deepen at the peripheries. Some minor scuffiness in the reverse field precludes a finer grade on this obviously rare specimen. Population: 2 in 64, 0 finer (9/04).(#5436) (Registry values: P8)
