***Auction Highlight*** 1838 C Charlotte Classic Head Gold Quarter Eagle $2.5 Graded au55 Details By SEGS. Breen-6147, Variety 1 (Winter), Variety 20, R.3. The 1838-C Classic Head quarter eagle is always in demand as the first issue of the Charlotte Mint series. With a small mintage of 7,880 pieces, the 1838-C is a scarce-to-rare issue in all grades, and most examples seen are in the VF-XF grade range. A few finer examples were saved for their novelty value, but the issue is genuinely rare in Mint State. The 1838-C is also popular with branch mint type collectors, because the Classic Head design was only struck for two years at the Charlotte Mint.The present coin is an attractive Choice AU specimen, with lightly abraded orange-gold surfaces that retain considerable amounts of original mint luster. Light hairlines account for the details designation. Just a touch of wear is evident on the well-detailed design elements and the overall presentation is most appealing.
