I was hoping a Lg. diameter capped bust quarter specialist could help me?

I got 2 quarters in the old small ANACS holders that I purchased as type coins a few years ago.One says it is a 1825/4,looking in collectors corner all I see are 1825/4/2.Are these the same?Also I have a 1825/3 that says B-2 on the holder and that isn't even listed in the 2012 Redbook, at least not that I can see. I don't think I will collect these by variety but I would at least like to know what I have. Thanks for any help anyone can give me.

    There are only three varieties (die marriages) for 1825: B-1, B-2, and B-3. Google them and you will find pics of all three. B-1 is rare and worth a large premium. The other two are common for their era. The PCGS price guide has some questionable data in it for these, an issue that was discussed here earlier this week.


    Edited to add: there is some confusion regarding the assignments of overdates here; 1825/4 may or may not be the same as 1825/4/2. Definitely go with the unambiguous B-1, B-2, B-3 system.

    If you can post some pictures of the coins collectors can help with the attributions and explanations of these interesting overdates

    I agree with Rhedden. To clarify, the B-1 used to be called 1825/2, the B-2 was called 1825/3, and the B-3 was called 1825/4. Now all 3 are being called 1825/4/(2).

    And my website also has pix of all 3 on the Bust Quarters page.
