1815 Capped Bust Quarter. B-1, the only known dies. Rarity-1. MS-62 (NGC).
A Mint State Capped Bust quarter, struck during the inaugural year of the John Reich design. Though the Capped Bust motif was introduced on the half dollar in 1807 and for the dime in 1809, lack of depositor demand for the quarter did not bring this design type to that denomination until 1815. Sharply struck the surfaces show a dull gray patina overall with hints of lilac and pewter gray in areas. A few ancient lines and traces of contact account for the assigned grade.
