***Auction Highlight*** 1824/2 B-1 Capped Bust Quarter 25c Graded au58 Details By SEGS. Mint records for cents, dimes, and quarters were confusing during the period from 1823 to 1825. For quarter dollars, the estimated mintages are 1,800 in 1823, 16,000 in 1824, and 168,000 in 1825. Five die marriages were produced during those three years, and the average mintage per die marriage was 37,160 coins, similar to the average mintage per die pair for most other years in the series.There is only one known die marriage for 1824-dated quarters, and about 400 survivors are known today. Among those are three confirmed Mint State pieces and a dozen AU pieces. This incredibly high-end coin is a classic Quarter rarity if there ever was one! We wouldn’t flinch if this were in an Straight Graded AU58 holder instead of an au58 Details, as I see no obvious reason for the details designation. You can see a tiny, scattered contact mark or two with a glass, but no lines. Both sides are evenly bathed in superb green/pale olive/blue/gold colors. Miss Liberty and the details are frosty and have remarkably strong strikes. Utter rarity. In the Top 5 Finest Known, one of only 2 au58 examples. I am including an au55 for your comparison. A Corey's Pick, Bid to Win, Don't let it get Away, you might not find its equal Coin. I give this coin my highest recommendation
