Description

1874 25C Arrows MS67 NGC. Apparently the collecting public was not as interested in setting aside Arrows quarters from 1874 as they were in the first year. Superb examples of the 1874 are especially elusive with only this and one other piece certified (both by NGC, 3/09). While most 1874 quarters are well struck, many show softness on the head of Liberty. This particular coin does not, displaying complete hair definition as well as full radials on the stars and fully defined plumage on the eagle. The highly lustrous surfaces are nearly perfect in a technical sense. Both sides have light champagne toning over brilliant and frosty luster.
