Liberty Quarter Eagles
1843-O $2 1/2 Large Date, Plain 4 AU55 NGC. Variety 1. There is only one die variety known for the Large Date coins, and the variety is quickly identified from the Plain 4 in the date that lacks serifs on its crossbar. In comparison, the more plentiful Small Date variety has a Crosslet 4, with seven die varieties identified. This Choice AU piece shows some evidence of strike weakness. The light yellow surfaces exhibit a few trivial marks, with considerable remaining mint luster. Census: 22 in 55, 58 finer (9/17).
