Liberty Seated Quarters - San Francisco Sets

Click image to access Gerry Fortin Rare Coins Inventory

 

The San Francisco mint issued seated quarters during 24 years between 1855 and 1891. There are 10 no motto issues (pre-1866) and 14 with motto (1866 and after). Due to their heavy use in commerce, the San Francisco quarters issued from 1855 – 1872 are seldom found problem free in any grade, with some issues virtually unknown in mint state. With the exception of the 1878-S, San Francisco quarters issued after 1872 are far more available than the early dates in the set.

Submission to the San Francisco Date Set registry can be accomplished via input forms located at the Basic Set, Business Strikes page. Once a complete Seated Quarter set is submitted, the San Francisco dates are extracted to populate this subset. Every effort will be made to quickly post your set or recent updates!

Definitions

% Completion: Number of coin entries divided by total entries requirement to complete a set; for New Orleans Date Set, 24 entries are required for 100% completion.

Set Weighted Grade: The grade of each coin is multiplied by the "rarity factor", then summed and divided by the total of the "rarity factors" for those coin entries in the set.

Set Rating: The grade of each coin is mutiplied by the "rarity factor", then summed and divided by the total of all "rarity factors" for a completed set.

Rarity Factor: The rarity assessment for each date or variety is based on availability in grades of EF-AU and uses a scale of R-1 through R-8 with a R-1 weight being the most common while a R-8 weight being the most difficult to locate. Rarity estimates are from Greg Johnson with the Larry Briggs Liberty Seated Quarter book as reference.
