- 1860 Liberty Head Quarter Eagle. Breen-6250. Type I Reverse. MS-61 (NGC). Sharply struck with lustrous satin surfaces, vivid reddish-orange and olive-gold patina blankets both sides and provides superior eye appeal at the lower reaches of Mint State. Of the three Type I Reverse varieties in the Liberty Head quarter eagles, 1859 to 1861, the 1860 is by far the most elusive. This variety, in fact, was unknown to Walter Breen when he published his 1988 U.S. and colonial coin encyclopedia, the author's entry for attribution #6250 stating, "Possibly exists." Clearly this is a significant bidding opportunity for the advanced collector of Liberty Head gold coinage. Provenance: From the Steve Studer Collection. NGC Census: 6; 6 finer in this category (MS-63 finest). PCGS# 97791. NGC ID: 25JR. Click here for certification details from NGC.
