1861 Liberty Gold Quarter Eagle ($2.50) New Reverse

Glowing medium-gold color with hints of orange and a pleasing, lightly crusted skin, this AU58 quarter eagle delivers strong cartwheel luster for the grade and excellent eye appeal. The high points show only the faintest friction - a light whisper on Liberty’s cheek and the eagle’s breast - while the fields remain notably clean for a Civil War date. Strike detail is bold, and the surfaces read as original and unmolested. Housed in a PCGS gold shield holder with a well-deserved green CAC sticker that underscores the quality of this example.
