Choice $1950 New August 27! Rare San Francisco Date, Choice Original, West Texas Collection. The 1858 San Francisco Seated quarter issue becomes extremely challenging in EF and above, and it's no slouch at this VF30 grade level either. The West Texas Collection is back with a boldly struck example that is undoubtedly original given the amount of "dirt" in the protected areas. This offering combines natural steely gray surfaces with background blues when viewed under a bright light. The obverse strike is nearly complete with center points on all stars other than #13 while the reverse is nicely uniform. Mintage is only 121,000 during the formative mining town period on the western frontier. Though not offered with a CAC green bean, this is certainly a pleasing example. Housed in a PCGS Gen 5.0 (2015) holder.
