Description
1857 Liberty Seated Quarter. MS-65 (PCGS).
As a high mintage circulation strike from the 1850s, it should come as no surprise that quality varies for the 1857 quarter. This piece has an above average strike that is particularly sharp in and around the centers. Surface quality is outstanding with bright, smooth, satin to semi-reflective luster shining forth powerfully at all viewing angles. This is one of the most frequently encountered Liberty Seated quarters in Mint State, a fact that is of particular significance since the 1857 is one of the No Motto issues in this series. This earlier type is much more challenging to locate in high grades than its Motto counterpart of 1866 to 1891. We are confident that this brilliant and uncommonly well preserved Gem will see spirited competition among quality conscious collectors.
PCGS# 5442. NGC ID: 23TE.
