A better early New Orleans Mint quarter with solid detail and pleasing surfaces.

Large/Small 47. A pleasing example of this clear overdate.

Very scarce in any grade with a mere 6,500 minted. This is a choice original coin with solid detail and attractive lustrous surfaces.

Well detailed with a well defined head, stars, and wreath. The surfaces are lustrous and mostly white with light toning mainly at the borders.
