Description
1861 Seated Quarter, Toned MS68
Tied for Finest Certified
The NGC Coin Explorer Plate Coin
1861 25C MS68 NGC. Briggs 6-E. The 1861 Seated Liberty
quarter is often available in Mint State through MS64, but the
issue becomes considerably scarcer in MS65, and it is rare finer.
The finest pieces certified at PCGS are designated MS67+, but this
is one of six pieces on the NGC Census that rank at MS68
(some duplication may exist among the six reported coins) (11/22).
This is the first MS68 coin to appear at auction. Each side is
vibrantly lustrous and devoid of mentionable abrasions, with
original olive-green, gold, russet, and amber toning. Hints of
lilac appear in the interiors. Eye appeal is excellent. Census: 6
in 68, 0 finer (11/22).(Registry values: P2)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 23TT, PCGS# 5454, GSID# 5132)
