Seated Quarters
1860-S 25C -- Repaired -- PCGS Genuine. XF Details. Briggs 1-A. The scarcity of the 1860-S quarter is undeniable. Specialists in this series immediately associate the date with the famous Gray-Gardner coin in MS61 -- the only known example in mint condition. Perhaps a few hundred coins survive in all, most in lower circulated grades. This piece enjoys above-average detail with a bold shield and crisp feathers. Both sides are untoned. Tooling to remove marks in the fields explains the Details grade.
