Lot 738
1878 Liberty Seated Quarter Dollar. PCGS graded Proof 66. Toned with steel gray at the centers which darkens to blue and sea green at the rims. We note some faint lines in the fields, most of which are probably die file marks as opposed to hairlines. Superb quality, PCGS has graded only 6 this high with a single coin graded higher from the original mintage of a scant 800 coins.
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.
