Lot 2210
1856-O Liberty Seated Quarter Dollar. PCGS graded MS-64. A gorgeous example of this sought-after date, this one boasts the lovely gold, blue and green toning on both sides referred to in the Larry Briggs reference on the series. Further, note that the strike is exceptional, all but a couple of the top stars on the obverse are full and complete, and Liberty and the eagle show no signs of weakness. While this is not the Eliasberg coin, it is certainly one of the very finest known of the date, PCGS has graded just 3 this high, with none graded higher! A simply lovely coin that will be the centerpiece of an advanced date and mint collection.
Estimated Value $2,500 - 3,500.
From the Michael Riordan collection.
