- 1867-S Liberty Head Quarter Eagle. MS-61 (PCGS).
Boldly toned in a blend of deep rose and reddish-orange, this gorgeous example exhibits frosty mint luster to surfaces that are uncommonly smooth for the assigned grade. The 1867-S is a scarce to rare quarter eagle in all grades with a mintage of only 28,000 coins. David W. Akers said of this issue:
"Extremely rare better than EF. In fact, even strictly graded EF specimens are rare. Once again, the old reverse hub was used, and most known specimens are softly struck on the eagle's right leg. I have only seen two strictly Uncirculated pieces, and perhaps half a dozen AU. This date is tied with the 1865-S and 1866-S as having the fourth-lowest average grade of any quarter eagle in our 226 catalog auction survey. I consider this date, and all the early S mint quarter eagles, to be grossly undervalued."
The present example is within the Condition Census, and it would serve as a highlight in any advanced gold cabinet.
PCGS Population: 6; 6 finer (MS-64 finest).
PCGS# 7806. NGC ID: 25KA.
