详细说明

1840-O Seated Liberty Quarter. Drapery. Briggs 2-C. Small O. MS-62 (PCGS). OGH. Coin-for-coin, the 1840-O Drapery is considerably rarer than its identically dated counterpart of the No Drapery type. For while both of these issues were represented in the New Orleans Hoard of 1982, the 1840-O Drapery constituted a smaller percentage of that find. A conditionally rare Unc, this silver-tinged example is suitably lustrous for the grade with a satiny texture to the surfaces. Very well struck for a product of the early New Orleans Mint, with only small, wispy abrasions that are not worthy of individual attention.
