Description

1858 MS 65. A heavily frosted and brilliant No Motto quarter that is sharply defined in most all areas, the only exception being on the eagle's plumage. There is a wire rim encircling each side and several die striations are noted above Liberty's and the eagle's head, although these striations did not produce even a glimmer of prooflikeness. There are a few field marks on both obverse and reverse but these detract little from the overall eye appeal. Purchased by one of this auction's principle consignors, David M. Faraday, from Hank Rogers at the Central States Show on May 4, 1968 for $50.
