Pricing Comments: Liberty Seated quarters are probably the most under valued seated coinage denomination. The full date and mintmark set is extremely difficult to complete due to length and individual date rarities. Weak strikes are also an ongoing issue for many dates including weak head and breast details and incomplete definition of reverse feathers. You will find competitive retail asking prices for nice original and problem free coins. Quarters with small issues will be discounted accordingly.

Rotated Reverses: Reverse images are best effort to capture the actual reverse rotation with respect to obverse position. If a rotated reverse is seen in the images, then this is how the quarter appeared during photography and the descriptions may not include specific comments as to the observation.

Photo	Date	Grade	TPG	Variety	GFRC Rating	Price	Description	Buy
	1856	AU50	PCGS 2849756		Choice	$265	Crusty Coin Gray, Choice Original, Worn Holder. Consignor Buyout, Price Reduction. A popular date for type given its availability through AU58. This example is covered with medium crusty gray patina with underlying steely fields. Housed in PCGS Gen 4.0 (1998-2002) holder with CAC approval. Please note the holder is well worn with haze spots that are evident on the images.
	1856-O	VF35	NGC 411675420	Unlisted	Choice	$200	Crusty Gray Patina, Steely Fields, Well Preserved. GFRC Price Reduction. Attributing 1856-O die varieties can be challenging as is the case for this new offering. Based on the Briggs book, I see obverse 3 paired with reverse E. Die specialist may wish to take note. This is a choice survivor with what first appears as crusty gray patina on both sides. Angled lighting exposes steely fields and aquamarine shades. Strike is typical while grading is accurate. Housed in newer NGC holder with edge view insert.
	1857	MS66	PCGS 20211414		Gem	HOLD $4500	Unquestionably Gem, Exceptional Bright Light Viewing, Sharp Steely Frosted Luster. A gorgeous gem that MUST BE VIEWED in-hand to be appreciated! Sadly, the GFRC images are unable to capture the viewing transition when placed under a bright light. The in-hand greens and rose shift to mostly light blues with a huge peripheral gold ring that is absolutely enthralling. What other superlatives can be used to describe this gem? Eye appeal and luster is of a higher grade with a contact mark by star 5 that most likely account for the certified grade. Luster is sharp and brilliant from steely surfaces. Once again, I must ask for clients to trust this description rather than the images. Photographing high grade gems with lightly contrasted patina brings its illustration challenges. Housed in PCGS Gen 4.4 (2005-2011) holder with CAC approval.
	1857	AU55	PCGS 42603500		Choice	HOLD $265	New March 17! Near-Gem at Grade, Frosted Luster, Vibrant Cartwheels, Light Rub. Consignor Price Reduction - A near-gem 1857 quarter with surfaces and eye appeal that are above the certified grade. Both sides radiate frosted luster with vibrant cartwheels under a bright light. Specked gold patina is denser on the obverse as is to be expected from pieces this original. The overall strike is notably weak though the rub is more consistent with that of an AU58 graded example. If the economics are right for the buyer, this lot should be sent to CAC as all Green bean evaluation parameters are present. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.1 (2020-2024) holder.
	1857 Reverse Die Clash	EF40	PCGS 41025101	FS-901	Choice	$4700	Flying Eagle Die Clash, Choice Original, Eclectic Collection.. Deep gray surfaces lead toward russet patina at the rims, while the protected areas of the central devices host similar copper shades. Strike is typical, with flat stars and eagle feathers blending together. Briggs 6-F, with Flying Eagle cent clash marks above the wings. This is one of the more bizarre errors in the quarter series and clearly the result of either gross negligence or deliberate chicanery. Either way, it's a great conversation piece and ideal for sharing with other collectors. Housed in a PCGS Gen 6.1 (2020-2022) holder.
	1857-O	MS62	NGC 3814091004	Briggs 1-A	Choice	$2100	Choice Original, Eclectic Collection.. A wide array of color is evident as this piece is flipped under a light, with rose, gold, and blue patina apparent. Nicely struck, with just a couple soft stars, while the usual problem area south of the reverse shield is fully detailed. Briggs 1-A, with the mintmark just left of center. All coins exist on a continuum, and this original piece is close to the CAC standard, possibly precluded by only a few stray lines in right obverse field. Still, this piece far nicer than most 1857-O quarters encountered in the market. Housed in a newer NGC holder with edge view insert.
	1858	VF Details	PCGS 45219607		Cleaned	$85	Cleaned Obverse, Natural Crusty Reverse. Accurately certified as the obverse has been cleaned with some recovery. Reverse is perfectly original. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.1 (2020-2023) holder with Cleaned-VF Details opinion.
	1858-S	VF35	PCGS 26549025			$3250	Semi-Key Date, Low CAC Population, Perfectly Original, CAC Approved. Well recognized as one of the Liberty Seated quarter semi-key dates, of many, this 1858-S offering also brings a very low CAC population. Only 22 are approved in all grades with six finer above this well preserved VF35 specimen. Though 121,00 were struck, only 2 survived in Mint State 62. I particular like this example due to its strict originality and bold strike. Coin gray patina is augmented by a lighter patch that extends to the reverse. The reverse toning is a bit thicker containing rose hues along with traces of peripheral gold. Head details are complete along with all star point being connected. This piece offers consideration detail and viewing pleasure at the certified grade. Destined for placement in an advanced collection. Housed in PCGS Gen 4.5 (2012-2013) holder with CAC approval.
	1859-O	EF40	PCGS 31626283		Choice	$785	Better New Orleans Date, Crusty Gray, Steely Fields, CAC Approval. The 1859 date is a semi-key in the New Orleans quarter series, with a mintage of 260,000 pieces. The CAC census provides validation of this fact with only 21 pieces stickered and 2 CACG holdered. Even gray surfaces are the epitome of originality, with gun metal blues being readily apparent under a bright light . Dirt is located within the reverse olive leaves and shield as a testament to the strict originality. Strike is typical with some weakness in the stars. The overall circulated eye appeal in pleasing which some generate significant collector interest. Housed in PCGS Gen 5.0 (2015) holder with CAC approval.
	1859-S	VF30	PCGS 41776397		Original	$1985	Key Date, Near-Choice Original, Olive-Gray Patina. The 1859 San Francisco issue is a tough date in the Seated quarter series, and especially so in higher circulated grades. Indeed, not a single Mint state example is known, as no one systematically collected this workhorse coinage on the Western frontier. This well-detailed piece is nicely detailed with complete star center and nearly-complete feather detail. An olive-gray patina is consistent on both sides with bright light inspection revealing a dull gray appearance. A review of the GFC Sales Archive will confirm how few 1859-S examples GFRC has offered in VF or better after a decade of being a top rated Liberty Seated coinage dealer. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.1 (2020-2024) holder.
	1859-S	F15	PCGS 81274489	Briggs 1-A	Original	$1295	Rare San Francisco Date, Light Gray, Bold Devices at Grade. During 1859, the still relatively new San Francisco mint struck only 80,000 Seated quarters. That mintage entered western frontier commerce and remained there for years. Indeed, not even a single Mint State example is known, as no one systematically collected this coinage at the time of issue. Present day collectors struggle to locate the date due to low survival rates. GFRC is pleased to offer this newly purchased example with light gray shades including darker gray at the peripheries. PCGS was tough on this example as there is a substantial amount of device details for the certified grade. A solid example that will fill that long standing hole in a date and mintmark set without breaking the bank. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.0 (2015-2020) holder.
	1860-S	VF25	PCGS 47993921		Choice	$6995	New March 17! Key Date, Original State of Preservation, Natural Coin Gray. Consignor Price Reduction - Although the San Francisco Mint struck 56,000 quarters in 1860, none of these coins were initially saved, due to extensive circulation in frontier mining town along with further attrition and melting during the Civil War and the early Reconstruction. Any 1860-S quarter is a rarity today as confirmed by a trip to the CAC census where only 24 are stickered with the majority being at or below the Fine level. This natural coin gray VF example displays strictly original surfaces with moderate wear and is notably problem-free. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.0 (2015-2020) holder. Last sold Heritage July 2023 at $9300 and offered well back of that level. No CAC submission has been made since the Heritage sale.
	1862	AU55	NGC 4251137019		Original	$345	Better Date, Steely Fields, Light Crusty Gray Surfaces. With a mintage of slightly under 1,000,000, 1862 Philadelphia strikes are an "in-betweener". The date is a bit better in terms of scarcity but still available. This pedigreed example is strictly original. Crusty gray surfaces still reveal steely luster as the patina is shallow and semi-transparent. Strike is complete though shallow with the Type 2 hubbed dies. One ancient line in the left obverse field is mentioned for accuracy. Housed in new large font NGC holder with Rev. Dr. James G. K. McClure pedigree label.
	1862-S	VF25	PCGS 37748013	Briggs 1-A	Original	$695	New March 17! Scarce San Francisco Issue, Light Gray. Consignor Price Reduction - 1862 San Francisco quarter mintage is reports at 67,000 pieces resulting in yet another challenging Civil War era date to pursue. This issue is scarce in all grades according to Briggs with availability through the VF grades. This survivor presents light gray surfaces with faint embedded rose hues amplified by the GFRC photography. The strike is typical for the Briggs 1-A die pairing with weakly impressed stars and a partially defined head. An opportunity to fill in this challenging slot in a date and mintmark set project. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.0 (2015-2020) holder.
	1864	MS64	PCGS 46721489	Briggs 1-A	Choice	$3950	Important Civil War Philadelphia Issue, Near-Gem Original, Lakeland Collection. A delightful frosted finish and lustrous surfaces are immediately noted on this 1864 Civil War issue. Both sides are toned with blushes of powder blue and antique gold with pearl gray iridescence. The strike is fully executed with even the most intricate design elements being deeply impressed. The Philadelphia Mint produced few quarters for commercial use during this year resulting in a mintage of 93,130. Silver coinage disappeared from circulation in the East and Midwest early in the Civil War, with a fair number of Mint State survivors being known. PCGS has certified 21 at the offered grade with a price guide value of $4,500. A Lakeland Collection duplicate that seeks a new home in an advanced Liberty Seated quarter collection. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.1 (2020-2024) holder.
	1864	EF45	NGC 3147076008		Choice	$850	New April 5! Stately Eye Appeal, Natural Coin Gray, Orange-Gold Borders, Choice Surfaces, Lakeland Collection.. The 1864 Philadelphia issue sports a mintage of 93,600 and is scarcer than prior year 1863 strikes. Surviving circulated examples for this Civil War date are concentrated at the EF40 and EF45 grade levels with PCGS pop report indicating 31 total. That amount is meager as compared to the numbers of collectors attempting build a date and mintmark set. This Lakeland Collection release is fully choice with steely fields overlaid by natural coin gray patination. The orange-gold peripheral toning further enhances its charm. Surfaces are essentially pristine and a pleasant surprise given the amount of time in circulation. Worthy of serious consideration at the offer price. Housed in NGC Gen 17 (2004-2008) holder.
	1867	EF40	PCGS 25661827	Briggs 1-A	Choice	$1985	Low Mintage Philadelphia Issue, Natural Crusty Gray Patina, Meager CAC Population. The 1867 quarter sits amid a run of low-mintage Philadelphia dates, struck during a period when hard money was scarce and paper substitutes filled the void. Only 20,000 pieces were struck in this year, and, like the 1866 quarter, business strikes are more desirable than proofs. Fortunately, the business strikes are easily distinguished due to weakness in the obverse shield ribbon. That is clearly the case here, with several letters of LIBERTY indistinct. This piece reveals natural crusty gray patina on both sides. Regardless of time during post-Civil War commerce, this piece is essentially unabraded with "dirt" noted in the obverse shield and surrounding the stars and reverse denomination. Strike is sharp for the issue. The CAC census reports 24 pieces approved in all grades with 4 graded by CACG. The CAC price guide is $2000 as the offered grade.
	1867-S	VF20	raw	Briggs 1-A	Original	$750	Rare San Francisco Date, Original Crusty Gray, Upper Right Reverse Hit, West Texas Collection. . An evenly toned example of the scarce 1867-S issue, with a small mintage of 48,000 pieces. Original gray patina covers both sides. There is enhanced wear on the lower right obverse at Liberty's lower legs, the foot, and extending into the right field. The wear results from the piece being bent due to a hit on the upper right reverse at (AM)ERICA. Attractively priced for the preservation state and ideal for that challenging empty hole in a Dansco or Whitman album collection. From the West Texas Collection.
	1869-S	VF25	PCGS 32122854	Briggs 1-A	Original	$695	New March 17! Early Die State, No Obverse Die Cracks, Light Gray Coloring, Near-Choice Original. Consignor Price Reduction - 1869 San Francisco Seated quarter will be found with a distinctive "look". Strikes are in low relief with a light to medium coloring being typical. Most will be seen with an arcing obverse die cracks. This newly consigned example brings a light gray appearance with some faint surface sheen. Most importantly, the obverse die is in a perfect die state without any traces of die cracks, a rare situation for the date. Surfaces are essentially unabraded. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.1 (2020-2024) holder.
	1870-CC	VF30	PCGS 46569283	Briggs 1-A	Original	$29995	New March 17! Carson City Key Date, Even Gray Surfaces, Near-Choice Original. Consignor Price Reduction - The 1870 Carson City issue is considered to be the rarest date in the Liberty Seated quarter series with a production start-up year mintage of only 8,340. Survivors above VF are prohibitively rare with porosity often plaguing the early issues as the mint was known to short cut their alloy preparation process by using pure Comstock mined silver rather than the traditional 90% silver and 10% copper mixture. The fact caused a susceptibility to rapid environmental damage and faster wear. This lot is a noteworthy survivor with dull gray patina on both sides. The surfaces appear to be strictly original under a 10x with a trace of porosity by stars 4 through 6 though requiring a trained eye to note. Bold rims and well detailed devices make for a compelling opportunity for that nearly impossible hole in many collections. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.1 (2020-2024) holder.
	1871-S	F12	PCGS 47831111	Briggs 1-A	Original	$1995	New March 17! Important Seated Quarter San Francisco Date, Even Greenish-Gray, Darker Borders. Consignor Price Reduction - The 1871 San Francisco quarter issue recorded a low mintage of 30,900 with the bulk entering circulation in the western mining communities. This is yet another case where present day collectors clamor for higher grades with the supply being smaller than current demand. The best piece that our consignor could locate for his complete Seated quarter set is this Fine 12 example. An evenly worn piece with pewter-gray centers and darker shades surrounding the stars and legend lettering. The surfaces are nicely preserved given the extended time in circulation. GFRC images accurately illustrate this offering. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.1 (2020-2024) holder.
	1872-CC	VF25	PCGS 42823925	Briggs 1-A	Choice	HOLD $16755	Rare Low Mintage Carson City Date, Olive Gray-Rose Patina, CAC Approved. Astute Liberty Seated quarter collectors are well aware of the importance of CAC approved Carson City dates arriving to market. This 1872-CC example is one of only 15 approved by CAC in all grades. Mintage was limited to 22,850 with most certified survivors clustered between G04 and F15 grades. This fresh GFRC buyback features natural surfaces that are toned a rose-gray with peripheral olive colored highlights. Surfaces are well preserved with only a few ancient lines in the lower right obverse field. This specimen offers strong details not just for the grade, but for the issue. About 65 to 90 examples are believed to survive, according to Rusty Goe (2020). Housed in PCGS Gen 6.1 (2020-2022) holder with CAC approval. Previously sold August 2022 with the sales record in the Sales Archive.
	1872-CC	VF20	PCGS 47516720	Briggs 1-A	Original	$9995	New March 17! Rare Carson City Date, Rose-Gray Patina, Nicely Preserved. Consignor Price Reduction - The 1872 Carson City Seated quarter is a rarity in any grade and worthy of serious consideration when examples arrive to market. GFRC is pleased to be offering a mid-grade example from a complete collection that is being actively dispersed. This attractive quarter features rose-gray patina on both sides. The center obverse is well defined with typically flat stars at the borders. A heavy die scratch runs from the base of the rock at a 45 degree angle into the shield and across stripes 5 through 8. According to Dave Bowers' A Guide Book of Liberty Seated Silver Coins (2016), delivery figures for the 1872-CC quarter include 8,000 coins on February 29, 5,750 on March 30, 5,100 on September 27, and 4,000 on December 31 for a total of 22,850 pieces. An infrequent opportunity for Liberty Seated quarter specialists to make a significant upgrade. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.1 (2020-2024) holder.
	1873-CC	VF25	PCGS 36274851	Briggs 1-A	Choice	HOLD $25195	New March 17! Carson City Key Date, Light Gray Choice Surfaces, Perfect Circulated Eye Appeal. Consignor Price Reduction - The only With Arrows Carson City Seated quarter issue and in demand by both Carson City type collectors and those pursing a complete date and mintmark set. I'm particularly impressed with the preservation and noteworthy circulated eye appeal and issuing a JUST BUT IT NOW recommendation. Mintage for the 1873-CC Arrows date is 12,462 with the same alloy issues as discussed for the 1870-CC lot. This date is somewhat available at the VF level but become prohibitively rate in EF or better. This example presents smooth original fields on both sides with "dirt" surrounding the stars, date, and within the design cavities. A careful 10x inspection revealed no traces of porosity, rather a single ancient mark below pole and cap. A worthy piece for an advanced collection. The PCGS price guide lists $38,500 as fair market value. Favorably offered at the last available auction record. Let's work together to determine how to move this lovely specimen into your collection. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.1 (2020-2024) holder.
	1874	MS64	NGC 289147007		Choice	$1600	With Arrows Type, Tan-Gold Patina, Frosty Luster, Active Cartwheels, Choice Surfaces, Sheffield Collection. A perfect With Arrows type offering or ideal for those pursuing Mint State Seated quarters. Sparkling cartwheel luster and thick mint frost radiate under a bright light. Both sides are lightly toned. Obverse coloring is mostly tannish-gold while the reverse is creamy white gold with embedded sky blue. Strike is typical for the date. Abrasions are to a minimum and consistent with the assigned grade. Heavy die clashing is also seen on the obverse. Overall, a frosty choice original offering for the selective collector. Housed in NGC Gen 9 (2001-2003) holder. Previously sold by GFRC as part of a complete set of Liberty Seated quarters offered by the Sunset Point Collection during 2019.
	1875	AU55	PCGS 32459493	I	Choice	HOLD $365	New April 19! Near-Gem Original, Pikes Peak Collection. A liberal splash of deep gray and olive patina fills the obverse of this Philadelphia piece, while gold shades cover the eagle, surrounded by auburn and blue-green color in the legend. Residual luster radiates from the protected areas. Well-struck, with most star points evident. Type I reverse, with the bases of STATES close. The CAC population is 58 pieces across all grades. Large quantities of quarters poured from the Mints in the mid-1870s, but remarkably few survive with a good degree of originality. Housed in a PCGS Gen 6.0 (2015-2020) holder with CAC approval. Ex, Eclectic Collection, GFRC Online Auctions May 2022.
	1875-CC	F15	PCGS 60138597		Choice	HOLD $895	New March 27! Difficult Carson City Date, Crusty Gray, Choice Surfaces, CAC Approval. 1875 Carson City struck Liberty Seated quarters present a continuous challenge to locate and stock. These will be found either well circulated or in high Mint State grades. CAC has approved only 32 pieces in all grades with a handful between VG08 and VF30. This Fine 15 example is a CAC pop 1 obviously deserves its green bean approval. Surfaces are covered with a thick crusty gray-brown skin along with minimal abrasions given the amount of time in circulation. In important offering for that difficult to fill hole in many circulated date and mintmark sets. Housed in PCGS Gen 4.0 (1998-2002) holder with CAC approval.
	1875-CC	AU58	NGC 4352161001	Briggs 2-B	Choice	$4650	Underrated Date, Choice Original, Crusted Gray Patina, LaSalle Collection.. The 1875-CC issue can be overlooked, standing beside the giants of the 1870-1873 Carson City run. This piece is scarce in its own right with a relatively low mintage of 140,000 pieces, and all Carson City issues have a special appeal within American numismatics. So noted for this new Lasalle Collection consignment. A thick coin gray patina nicely protects the obverse while a light reverse center provides access to the soft frosted luster. The Type II reverse is typically struck with residual mint frost evident within the protected areas. Housed in new large font NGC holder. PCGS #5499.
	1876	MS65	PCGS 81328669	II	Gem	$1750	New March 28! Gem Original, Frosted Luster, Ideal for Type, Island Lake Collection..

	1876	MS62	NGC 6619033003		Choice	$450	Brilliant Steely-Frosted Luster, Center toning, Choice Surfaces, Lakeland Collection. Steely-frosted luster is readily apparent whether conducting in-hand inspection or enjoying the glowing presentation under a bright light. The strike is complete with full head details and star center points along with intricately defined eagle feathers. Weakness at the denomination is a function of working die hubbing and not strike. Chatter in the right obverse field is consistent with the certified grade with no wear seen during 10x inspection. Housed in new large font NGC holder.
	1877-S	MS64	NGC 1848081015	Briggs 11-J	Choice	$895	Medium S, Near Gem Original, Huge Bright Light Eye Appeal, Accurately Graded. If GFRC customers could only view this piece under bright light...Wow! Strictly original and natural patina covers the surfaces and the in hand appearance is that of mostly rose coloring with some aquamarine at the obverse rim and light rose across the reverse. Well that all changes when this piece is exposed to a light source. The obverse turns into a color masterpiece with core blue and rose intermixed center that transitions to light yellow gold at the rims. Believe me, I'm not over exaggerating on this one and the eye appeal is well above MS64. The reverse stays rose under bright light with a dash of blues at AMERICA. Housed in pristine older NGC holder.

	1879	MS67	PCGS 42161961	Briggs 1-A	Gem	$5500	New April 12! Exceptional Super Gem, Emerald Collection. From 1879 through 1890, the Philadelphia Mint produced few circulation strikes as the Treasury Department distributed huge quantities of older quarters that had been hoarded during the Civil War and Reconstruction eras. The 1879 issue was limited to just 13,600 pieces. This newly released Emerald Collection specimen is one of the finest survivors available today. Both sides are vividly toned with the obverse overlaid with blended steel-olive, cobalt blue and champagne-pink iridescence. On the reverse, exquisite target toning is noted in shades of champagne-pink, antique gold, steel-blue, salmon-pink and silver-apricot. This is a sharply lustrous specimen with partially mirrored radiance throughout with essentially unabraded surfaces that are just a few wispy marks away from an even higher grade. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.1 (2020-2023) holder.
	1890	AU58	PCGS 35262491		Choice	$735	Popular Date, Ebony-Gray Patina, Lightly Mirrored Fields, Reflective Luster, Accurately Graded. A stunning 1890 Philadelphia strike with well balanced reflective luster and ebony-crusty toning. Strike is hammered with obverse stars in high relief along with deeply impressed head and hair curls. Bright light viewing is a joy due to mirrored fields on both sides. The obverse offers embedded deep blues while the reverse presents aquamarine and rose. There are no blemishes worthy of mention durng 10x inspection. Accurately graded due to faint rub on the highest points. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.0 (2015-2020) holder.
	1891	AU58	NGC 2452091004		Choice	$350	New April 19! Great Type Candidate, Untoned Frosty Luster, Choice Surfaces, Pikes Peak Collection.

A quality release from the Pikes Peak Collection. Housed in NGC Gen 17 (2004-2008) holder with CAC approval.
	1891-O	MS63	PCGS 82285024	Briggs 3-C	Choice	HOLD $13000	Beautifully Toned, Prooflike, Swirling Cartwheels, Few Graded Mint State, New Orleans Collection. The 1891-O issue has the distinction of being the only post-Civil War Seated Liberty quarter struck at the New Orleans Mint. Only 68,000 pieces were produced with Mint State examples being rare. The New Orleans Collection is releasing this thoroughly eye appealing duplicate with origins to a January 2017 Heritage auction. This example offers a complete strike with faint clash marks and reflective prooflike fields. Dusky champagne interiors transition to lavender, blue, and mint-green around the borders. Clearly, the eye appeal surpasses expectations for the grade. Light hairlines in the right obverse fields limit the numeric designation. Housed in a PCGS Gen 6.0 (2015-2020) holder.
	1891-O	VF20	PCGS 45089732	Briggs 2-B	Original	HOLD $1345	New March 17! Underrated Date, Light Gray. Consignor Price Reduction - For unknown reasons, the 1891 New Olreans date does not secure the respect it deserves in circulated grades. Mintage is only 68,000 pieces as the New Orleans Mint was consumed with striking primarily Morgan dollars followed by Liberty Seated dimes and no U.S gold. The Seated quarter denomination appears to have been an after thought with all entering circulation. Currently, this date is a rarity only second to the elusive 1849-O. Light gray coloration is noted on both sides of this survivor with golden hues at the borders. "Dirt' surrounds the stars and date punch. Both sides presently steely fields with angled lighting. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.1 (2020-2024) holder.
