The 1854-O Huge-O quarter has at times been subject to speculation, but following the dispersal of a hoard (c. 2000), prices and demand are now consistent with the market. This example walked up to the GFRC table at Summer Baltimore and was promptly added to inventory. Regardless of the moderate wear the surfaces are well preserved with coin gray toning complimented with golden hues at the peripheries. The strike is typical, as is usual for the issue, with flat stars and incomplete feather detail beneath the reverse shield. A worthy example of a rare issue, with the all-important huge-O boldly detailed on the reverse. The engraver's clumsy attempt to clarify the mintmark caused weakness in QUAR. DOL. that is plainly evident here, and the strongly visible nature of this screw-up (the engraver's boss probably used stronger language) has made this coin a favorite of collectors for generations.

Due to a design hub modification and a shield added to the reverse in 1860, the 1859 issue is a one-year-only type coin with incremental demand. A well struck example with boldly defined motifs. Luster is on a continuum between steely and reflective as the fields are lightly mirrored. Coloration is best described as a reddish tan-gold. A 10x review reveals strike doubling at the lower right of (O)NE (D)IME. A quality example that is sure to please. Housed in PCGS Gen 5.0 (2015) Dupont hologram holder with CAC approval.
