Seated Quarters
1866 25C Motto VF30 NGC. Briggs 1-A. Briggs has called this "a rare coin in any grade." A single die pair was used to strike 16,800 coins, and it was damaged early on in the production, causing central flatness (as seen here). Original lavender-gray patina covers the entirety of this first-year Motto quarter. Good detail remains.
