Seated Quarters
1843-O 25C Small O MS62 PCGS Secure. Briggs 1-A. The Briggs reverse is readily identified by the vertical shield lines, which extend deep into the horizontal lines. The 1843-O is regularly encountered in well-circulated grades, but VF and better examples are much scarcer than the mintage would suggest. In Mint State, the issue is undeniably rare. This dove-gray and autumn-brown New Orleans quarter is well struck and satiny. Marks are surprisingly few, though we note a faded brief field line near Liberty's lower wrist.
