Lot 708
Liberty Seated Quarter Dollar. 1866. With motto. NGC graded MS-65. Amazingly pristine in conditoin! Silver surfaces with iridescent toning in the periphery and prooflike fields. Cameo to Deep Cameo in appearance with Liberty and the eagle being excessively frosty, almost perfectly. Fine parallel die polish lines seen on the obverse angled downwards. Those same quality die polish lines are seen on the reverse angled upwards. Light golden, magenta and blue hues grace the reverse borders as well. Only one mark can be said to be out of place and this is a faint scuff mark on the obverse, off the 10th star, heading the opposite direction of the die polish lines. Historically significant as the first year of issue of With Motto coinage. A superb gem specimen and unquestionably one of the finest for this issue! NGC has graded 16 in MS65 and only 3 one point better. Housed in an old NGC holder.
Estimated Value $5,000 - 5,500.
