Seated Quarters
1853 25C Arrows and Rays MS64 PCGS. CAC. Briggs 2-B. In 1853, the weight of the U.S. quarter dollar was reduced from 6.68 grams to 6.22 grams. This change was signified by the addition of arrows to the obverse design near the date and rays around the eagle. The rays were omitted in 1854, however, making this an important one-year type. This example is well-struck and essentially untoned, save for a faint golden cast. Surface marks are absolutely minimal for the grade.
Ex: Baltimore Signature (Heritage, 3/2009), lot 1026; ANA Signature (Heritage, 3/2010), lot 771.
