Liberty Quarter Eagles
1840-O $2 1/2 AU58 NGC. Variety 1. The Large Mintmark variety is the more available variant, contrary to both Winter and Breen. In 2006, the former suggested 100 to 125 pieces survived in all grades, including 18-22 pieces in AU. Exactly 200 pieces have been graded by NGC and PCGS combined, so that estimate may be slightly low. This inaugural O-mint Liberty quarter eagle has bright yellow-gold surfaces and is fairly sharp for the facility. Wispy abrasions appear over each side. Census: 24 in 58, 14 finer (9/17).
