Lot 1702
1879-S. NGC graded MS-60. Here is one of the top ten 1879-S Quarter Eagles in existence, as reported in the NGC and PCGS Population Reports. With a mintage of 43,500 this San Francisco issue is obviously scarce, but in Mint State it is truly rare. The fields show minor signs of contact from handling and shipping, but the luster is full and complete, and the strike is also bold. A coin for the specialist who knows how difficult this date is to find in Mint State.
