<B>1872-S $2 1/2 MS64 PCGS.</B></I> Following the Civil War, mintages for non-double-eagle gold coins remained soft both in the East and West. The demands of international commerce called for the highest denominations possible, and values such as the quarter eagle became lost in the shuffle. Yet a handful of high-grade survivors always seems to emerge from each picayune issue, and the piece offered here is one of them. Strongly lustrous yellow-orange surfaces and clean devices with above-average detail characterize this attractive example, from an issue of just 18,000 pieces. Aside from a touch of softness on the eagle's left (facing) leg, the devices are crisp. A delightful piece that easily qualifies as one of the finest survivors, tied for the finest certified by either NGC or PCGS (6/07).<BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> Christian Gobrecht<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>\)
