Description
1818 Capped Bust Quarter. B-5. Rarity-4+. EF-40 (PCGS).
This attractive and colorfully toned example presents some olive-golden color on both sides that is accented with sky-blue as the coin is rotated under a light. The Browning-5 die pair is seldom seen in any condition, let alone higher grades (this coin). This one is a late die state with the branch stem lapped away beneath the left (facing) claw, and some of the eagle's plumage missing between the wing and leg. Circulating Spanish colonial 2 reales pieces diminished between 1810 and 1825, increasing demand for U.S. quarters. Ten die pairings were needed to strike 1818 quarters with a total mintage of 361,174 pieces.
PCGS# 5322. NGC ID: 23RH.
