Lot 730
1873 Liberty Seated Quarter Dollar. No arrows. Closed 3. PCGS graded Proof 66. Booming white frost at the centers and dark gold and blue toning at the obverse rims. The reverse similar, dark at the edges with gold hues spanning the center too. Identifiable by a lint mark in the field below the S of TRUST. Mint records reflect just 600 coined in Proof, some of which may have been melted later. PCGS notes only 2 graded this high, with a single coin graded higher. If you want one of the best from this collection, here is a fine opportunity.
Estimated Value $2,000 - 2,400.
From the Benson collection and purchased from Ira S. Reed on August 17, 1944 as part of a set of Proof quarters from 1858 to 1915 for $235.00.
