1804. 14 stars on reverse. PCGS graded EF-40. The wear is evenly spread with some minute adjustment marks noted on the reverse borders; all, lightly toned. Only 3327 coins issued for all the varieties. For a long time collectors have admired and enjoyed early quarter eagles, one of American numismatics’ favorite series among gold coins. The "early" issues can be defined as beginning in 1796 and ending with the 1834 With Motto, issued just before the Classic Head was introduced.

Here is a very presentable Extremely Fine coin, a piece that is far above average in strike, and superior to that offered in recent times. The present example has some light adjustment marks through the central definition of the reverse, yet the entire coin is just about as sharp as is ever seen. Slight softness is noted at obverse stars two through seven. A bit of lustrous surface visible around the stars and legends. Splendid eye appeal overall. Pop 10; 61 finer. Rare (PCGS # 7652) .
Estimated Value $13,000 - 14,000.
