Scarce in All Grades, Even Coin Gray, John McCloskey Pedigree, LaSalle Collection. 1862 San Francisco quarter mintage is reported at 67,000 pieces resulting in yet another challenging Civil War era issue to locate. This date is scarce in all grades according to Briggs with availability into the VF grades (R4 rarity) and then jumping to R5+ in EF or better. This western frontier survivor presents light gray surfaces and a typical strike for the Briggs 2-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 with a specimen from the long time president of the Liberty Seated Collectors Club. Housed in new NGC holder with special John McCloskey Collection pedigree holder. December 1969
