Description

1866 25C Motto MS66 NGC. The 1866 is rare in all grades; indeed, only about 80 pieces have been certified by NGC and PCGS in all levels of preservation. Only five pieces have been graded Premium Gem, and one finer. This marvelous snow-white MS66 coin reveals partially prooflike fields that highlight frosted motifs, giving the coin an overall cameo-like appearance. Except for softness in about one-half of the star centers, the design elements are boldly impressed. The fields on both sides exhibit strong die polish lines. The connoisseur of Seated Liberty quarters will not want to miss out on this one. Census: 4 in 66, 1 finer (3/09).
