Description
1859-S Seated Liberty Quarter, VF25
Very Scarce, Low Mintage Date
1859-S 25C VF25 PCGS. Briggs 1-A, the only known dies for
the date. Only 80,000 Seated Liberty quarters were struck in 1859
at the San Francisco Mint. Few examples were saved by numismatists,
as collecting branch mint issues systematically did not become
popular until decades later. The issue is very scarce in all grades
today and rare above VF. The present coin is an attractive
collectible example, with moderate, even wear over all surfaces and
no serious distractions. Population: 3 in 25, 19 finer
(3/10).(Registry values: P8)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 23TN, PCGS# 5450, GSID# 5191)
Metal: 90% Silver, 10% Copper
Weight: 6.22 grams
