A beautiful near-Mint State example of this rare date with rich yellow-gold surfaces displaying strong original luster with only the lightest friction on Liberty’s hair and the eagle’s high points, consistent with the AU58 designation. The strike is well executed for the issue, with bold stars, a crisp coronet inscription, and clear feather detail on the reverse. The surfaces are choice and truly exceptional for an ‘O’ mint quarter eagle of this era and enhance this coin’s outstanding eye appeal.
