详细说明

1860 Seated Liberty Quarter. Proof-65 (NGC). Sharp-to-full devices and nicely mirrored fields are equally free of significant blemishes. This piece is brilliant with a silver-white sheen that is sure to appeal to the Gem-quality type or date collector. Despite a reported mintage of 1,000 pieces, the 1860 is a scarce proof Seated Quarter that becomes increasingly difficult to locate with grade. As numismatics was still in its infancy in the United States of the 1860s, it is likely that many examples of this issue were melted as unsold.
