- Choice Mint State 1862 Quarter Eagle Scarce Civil War Issue 1862 Liberty Head Quarter Eagle. MS-64 (NGC). An exceptionally well preserved, high Condition Census survivor of this low mintage Civil War era gold issue. Engaging prooflike surfaces exhibit semi-reflective fields that support satiny devices. Both sides are sharply struck with subtle powder blue highlights to beautiful rose-gold color. A delight to behold, and sure to see spirited bidding among advanced gold enthusiasts. The suspension of gold specie payments in the North at the end of 1861 explains the precipitate drop in circulation strike quarter eagle production at the Philadelphia Mint the following year. Only 98,543 coins were struck 1862, and this issue is far scarcer than the 1861 in all grades. Mint State survivors at any level are noteworthy rarities. NGC Census: 3; with a single MS-64+ finer. PCGS# 7796. NGC ID: 25JZ. Click here for certification details from NGC.
