Description
1872 Seated Quarter, MS65
Lustrous and Prooflike
1872 25C MS65 PCGS. Briggs 2-B. Brassy gold patina displays
a freckling of blue overtones with prooflike fields on both sides
of the coin. The issue is scarce in all Mint State grades, but
especially so in Gem or finer condition, where the issue is better
described as rare. Conceivably, much of the 182,000-piece mintage
was melted in 1873, when the Arrows weight change took place. An
exceptional example of an overlooked date, with just one piece
finer at PCGS. Population: 2 in 65, 1 finer (6/15).(Registry values: P4)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 23UR, PCGS# 5481, GSID# 5143)
Metal: 90% Silver, 10% Copper
Weight: 6.22 grams
ASW: 0.17998oz
Mintage: 182,000
