Bust Quarters 1818/5 25C B-1, R.2, MS65 NGC. Tompkins Die

Bust Quarters
1818/5 25C B-1, R.2, MS65 NGC. Tompkins Die State 3/4 with a crack through the beak, but no crack on the reverse at 5 o'clock. The flag of an underdigit 5 is apparent within the upper loop of the second 8 in the date. A Condition Census example of the popular Guide Book overdate. Lavish ocean-blue, violet-red, and mahogany-brown toning encompasses this virtually unabraded Gem. The centers exhibit incompleteness of strike, and hints of struck-in grease are above the eagle's head and east of the second 8 in the date. A delightful Gem certain to be a highlight of the collection of the highest bidder.
