- Low Mintage 1871-CC Quarter Rarity 1871-CC Liberty Seated Quarter. Briggs 1-A, the only known dies. VG-8 (NGC). Attractive toning in blended steel and pearl-gray joins with outline definition to all major design elements to deliver strong eye appeal at the assigned grade level. The rims are also distinct on both sides, and the surfaces are generally smooth in hand with only wispy handling marks and light carbon specks that are easily overlooked by the unaided eye. The 1871-CC is a leading rarity among Liberty Seated quarters, which is saying quite a lot for a series replete with elusive and underrated issues. The Carson City Mint's second delivery for the denomination, the mintage amounted to a mere 10,890 coins. These saw immediate and extensive circulation, which claimed most and left a paltry surviving population that CC-Mint expert Rusty Goe (2020) estimates at just 45 to 60 examples in all grades. Clearly this attractive, straight-graded example in an NGC VG-8 holder represents a significant find and fleeting bidding opportunity in today's market. PCGS# 5479. NGC ID: 23UN.
