Bust Quarters
1820 25C Large 0, B-2, R.2, MS64 PCGS. A respectable mintage of 127,444 Capped Bust quarters was struck in 1820, with five die varieties known for the date. This coin represents the popular B-2 variety, with a large 0 in the date and a die line connecting the center leaf to the dentils on the reverse. The B-2 is the most available variety for the year, but examples in MS64 condition are seldom encountered.
This impressive Choice specimen is sharply detailed in most areas, with just a touch of softness on the eagle's right (facing) claw. The well-preserved surfaces are blanketed on both sides by attractive shades of pale gold, cobalt-blue, and magenta toning. Ample mint luster shines through the patina. Population (for Large 0 varieties): 2 in 64, 7 finer (11/16).
