1854-O Seated Liberty Quarter (25c) Huge O

PCGS VF35 CAC

The 1854-O Huge O Quarter Dollar is an intriguing variety due to its unique mintmark. Unlike other O mintmarks from that year or any other, this particular mintmark is large and misshapen (and HUGE!), leading experts to theorize it was either re-worked or added by hand to a die supplied by the Philadelphia Mint without a mintmark. This anomaly is reminiscent of the 1870-S $3 gold piece. Walter Breen is credited with discovering this unusual variety in 1954, exactly a century after it was minted.

This coin, graded VF35 by PCGS and adorned with a CAC sticker, has strong eye appeal and displays honest wear commensurate with its mid-grade classification. The surfaces are smooth with minimal contact marks, and the details, especially the HUGE O mintmark, are clear and distinct. The light gray patina adds to its attractiveness. Given its scarcity compared to the regular 1854-O, this example represents a collectible piece with intriguing historical significance, and the CAC seal of approval - rare on seated coinage of all types - is the icing on the cake.
