Lot Description

1858-C Liberty Head Quarter Eagle. Winter-1, the only known dies. AU-53 (NGC). A boldly to sharply defined C-Mint gold coin with warm honey-olive and rose-orange patina to both sides. Only 9,056 quarter eagles were produced at the Charlotte Mint in 1858 with today's typical survivor most apt to be VF or marginally finer. This conditionally scarce About Uncirculated example is one that will experience strong bidding activity. PCGS# 7787. NGC ID: 25JH. Click here for certification details from NGC.
