Lot 1346
1796 Draped Bust Quarter Dollar. PCGS graded Fine-12 Browning-2. Evenly worn, problem free with natural antique toning. A refreshingly smooth, problem free coin of the kind of quality one likes to describe for bidders of this actively collected draped bust, small eagle design. Carefree surfaces combine with natural "antique silver" effect to produce a thing of beauty, a coin sublime, if readers will excuse the poetic license. Only 6,146 quarter dollars were struck bearing the 1796 date. What's more, since this is a one-year design, it gains added virtue and attracts like a magnet the many generations of coin collectors who need the type to finish a collection. Don't be shy about bidding. Step up and let your interest be known before this is whisked away again by someone else (PCGS # 5310) .
Estimated Value $23,000 - 25,000.
