Rare Choice Mint State 1830 Capped Head Quarter Eagle

Lot 915 Click on photo for enlarged version Click on photo for enlarged version
1830. NGC graded MS-63. Reflective bright yellow gold in color and boldly struck by the dies. We note the surfaces show very few signs of handling and the color is even and fresh. Around the first star the fields are slightly low, perhaps the die had some grease in this area, or this might be a striking characteristic, but this will help identify this specimen in the future. The U of UNITED is recut to the left. A rare and desirable coin in every way, and a very rare type issue in choice grades. NGC has graded 4 of this date as MS-63, with 3 graded a notch higher and at the top a small group of 6 in MS-65, with none higher. In NGC holder #555491-006.
Estimated Value $10,000-UP.
