Early Quarters
1796 25C B-2, R.3 -- Plugged, Repaired, Whizzed -- ANACS. VG8 Details. Tompkins Die State 1/1. A crudely plugged hole still shows tool marks right of the date, and the corresponding O in OF is reengraved. The surfaces are granular and have scattered marks and light scratches. Varying shades of gray patina appear across a mildly glossy surface texture. The devices, date, LIBERTY, and most of the peripheral reverse legend are clear. Portions of the reverse rim are weak due to an uneven strike from the screw press. An affordable Small Eagle type coin.
