Classic Quarter Eagles
1836 $2 1/2 Script 8 MS61 NGC. Breen-6143, Variety 13, R.4. The top pair of leaves yields a distinctive berry and the middle arrowhead extends past C in AMERICA to confirm the scarce Variety 13 die marriage. Lengthy die cracks intersect at Liberty's hair above the ear. The upper-left shield corner is characteristically weak on this variety, as are Liberty's highest curls, yet the other elements are sharply struck. We note some fine granularity on the portrait, but marks are minimal on the medium-gold surfaces with hints of orange at the margins.
