Seated Quarters
1853 25C Arrows and Rays MS62 PCGS. The present die variety is unlisted by Briggs, but if he had seen it prior to publication of his classic Seated quarter reference, he would surely have included it. A small cud is present on the dentils below the space between the 53 in the date, and both sides display interesting die cracks. Brilliant aside from peach-gold toning. Satiny and well struck. A single-year type.
