End Of 2012 Purchase... 1804 Draped Bust Quarter

And I've wanted one like this for years. When this came available to me with very original surfaces, problem free I had to figure a way to get it. And I did.
Mintage is a scant 6,738. I'll concede it's not as significant as the 1796 with a mintage of 6,146. It being a one year type, with the small eagle. But I believe the
1804, first year of the large eagle reverse, might be a bit tougher coin. I like it anyway.

You really should send that dirty old gal to me and look for another "flashier" example stman.
Well it is going to be hard to top a coin like that.
1804 quarters are really tough to find that look that good.
That is a major coin my friend. Congrats on owning that piece of history.
edited to add - even the King's coin is obviously cleaned unlike this one.

That's one tough bird.
Yours is the choicest I've ever seen.

Congrats on ending 2012 the right way.

Great date and actually rarer than the 1796.
Congrats, it's also a date I have wanted since I was a kid,
eons ago. I really don't think I have ever seen this date in
person, no dealer I know ever had one in their cases when
I was there.

Great original surfaces, looks VG10 but may have claims to Fine, care to reveal the TPG grade?

Hey Baley, PCGS VG-08 CAC and stman approved. Probably fairly strong for a VG-08 I guess.
<< <i> Nice! The year 1804 was an interesting one for US coinage. >>
Great coin. Love it!
