<B>1875 $2 1/2 Quarter Eagle, Judd-1434, Pollock-1577, High R.7, PR62 NGC.</B></I> Regular dies Coronet quarter eagle from 1875. Struck in copper and gilt with a reeded edge. The purpose of the gilt on this pattern is obvious: to simulate the rare, low mintage business strike of this date. And the gilt on this piece is of better quality than usually seen with none of the underlying copper showing. An interesting characteristic of this piece is a rim-to-rim die crack on the upper reverse, which we assume would be present on all such pieces. Only three or four coins are believed known in copper. The fields are bright and the gilt has not materially affected the reflectivity from the proof finish. A few tiny planchet flakes are present on each side. Fully struck throughout. <BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
