- 1844 Liberty Seated Quarter. Briggs 2-B. Repunched Date. MS-63 (NGC). CAC. OH.
A wonderfully original and exceptionally appealing example of this overlooked condition rarity among early No Motto Liberty Seated quarters. The peripheries on both sides are splashed with iridescent charcoal-blue and antique olive-gold highlights that give way to original antique-golden iridescence elsewhere. Intense satin luster throughout, the strike is sharp to full over virtually all design elements. A respectable mintage (for the era) of 421,200 pieces and a good rate of survival explain why the 1844 is one of the most plentiful 1840s quarters in numismatic circles. The vast majority of survivors are circulated, however, and in Mint State this issue is just as rare and underrated as most other Philadelphia Mint issues of the decade. This engaging, premium quality example represents a significant find for the astute bidder.
NGC Census: 11; 8 finer (MS-65+ * finest).
PCGS# 5406. NGC ID: 23ST.
