Capped Bust
	1815	AU58	PCGS 34370779	B-1	Original	$4500	First Year of Design Issue, Hammered Strike, Untoned, Near-Choice, Twin Lakes Collection. Consignor Price Reduction. 1815 brought the new Capped Bust quarter type with a limited mintage of 89,235. The date is semi-scarce overall, with most survivors being well worn and found between Good and Very Fine grades. At the AU level, the PCGS population drops off quickly with only 9 at the AU58 level. This Twin Lakes release features ample mint bloom with light rub. Device are deeply impressed from a single die pair. Angled lighting exposes brilliant frosted luster and some cartwheel action. Surfaces are untoned as a old dip is likely. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.0 (2015-2020) holder.
	1820 Small 0	EF Details	PCGS 37927235	B-4	Market Acceptable	$1350	Small 0, Attractive Appearance, Blue-Gray, Steely Reflective Fields, West Texas Collection. What does a poor collector do when a Details opinion arrives on an attractive early type coin. This 1820 B-4 quarter certainly has strong presentation and is attractive. Fields are steely reflective under angled lighting. Devices are lightly worn with ample remaining details. Coloration seems to be the issued that bothered the PCGS grader. Obverse toning is bluish-gray with copper at the periphery while the reverse is lighter toned with aquamarine surrounded by brownish-gold. A 10x review located the obverse die rust pits but no hairlines or porosity. I've gone with GFRC Market Acceptable rating as Cleaned is too harsh. Price accordingly. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.0 (2015-2020) holder with Altered Surfaces - EF Detail opinion and Small 0 attribution.
	1821	VF35	ANACS OWH 352743	B-3	Choice	$875	Crusty Rose-Gray Patina, Choice Surfaces, Open Collar Type Candate, Lakeland Collection. Locating strictly original open collar Capped Bust quarters is most challenging as the majority has been subjected to various types of mistreatments or enhancements. The Lakeland Collection is releasing a choice 1821 B-3 specimen that warrants careful scrutiny. Why? This example is 100% original with even wear and crusty rose-gray toning that is consistent on both sides. A 10x inspection also reveals unabraded surfaces. A well preserved survivor that should please the new owner. Housed in ANACS old white holder.
	1821	VF30	PCGS 45038786	B-3	Choice	$835	Terminal Die State 6, Crusty Gray Patina, Pristine Surfaces, Entirely Choice. The open collar (large size) Capped Bust quarter is a challenging series to collect as so few choice original survivors are available in the marketplace. Most are tied up in advanced collections. When GFRC can locate a strictly original example at a fair price, that piece is promptly added to inventory as is the case with this 1821 B-3 offering. Mintage amounted to 216,851 strikes with most survivors found in the lower circulated grades. This VF30 certified example is covered with natural coin gray patina along with steely fields. Under a light source, the fields still retain a subset of their original reflective luster. Surfaces are well preserved and unabraded. A borderline example with respect to CAC approval. Priced slightly below the CAC guide as this piece is fully choice for the grade. This piece also brings a desirable Die State 6 obverse with bold die crack at star 12 into the curls along with clashed arrow heads behind star 8. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.1 (2020-2022) holder.
	1824/2	VG10	PCGS 28722936		Choice	$1475	New April 24! Near-Gem Preservation, Gray with Peripheral Gold, Notable Eye Appeal. A single die pair struck only 16,000 quarters dated 1824. There are no Mint records of any deliveries during that year, therefore researchers believe the issue was included in the final deliver of 1823. CAC has approved 58 in all grades with most in lower circulated grades. This new example garners a near-gem quality rating was the surfaces are very well preserved while bright light coloration is superb. Natural coin gray toning provide a contrasting backdrop for peripheral golds. The reverse is quite special with its center rose hues. If you wish to own lower grade early quarters with the all important green bean, this coin is for you. Housed in PCGS Gen 5.0 (2015) holder with CAC approval.

The AU58 grade level is popular with collectors, and for good reason.

On the B-4 variety, star 7 points to the lower curl, the right side of 1 in the date is below the left edge of the curl, the eagle exhibits a tongue, and 25 C. is placed high.
