How do you know that it is a Bust Quarter? I don't see anything other than a blank planchet.

The size and rims.

Since that one wouldn't grade.......can't post anything lower.

"How do you know that it is a Bust Quarter? I don't see anything other than a blank planchet."

I had the same thought myself at first, but after further study I can see the faint outline of the truncation of the bust, the vertical neck, and the chin in the obverse image. The obverse image appears to be rotated slightly (~45º) clockwise.

I'm pretty sure that is a 1823/2!

LanLord · June 22, 2015 8:23AM

I think the 5 in the date was re-engraved

Stay away from bar stools that rotate..

I agree. A capped bust, 1830's.

What's the diameter?

Staple scratch?!

There are no lower grade bust quarters.

The main reason it is not in a slab.

Rollerman · June 23, 2015 3:42AM

If I had one and could post it here, I'd post a slick that had been holded and bent AND AT'ed! That would be lower, or can you go lower than basal?

best I can do in the bad quarter contest

Barndog · June 23, 2015 10:16AM

this is the 1818 I wrote about previously

roadrunner · June 23, 2015 11:12AM

Put that bust quarter in your pocket for a week, and it will become a "lower grade" bust quarter.

fivecents · June 23, 2015 1:00PM

Here is my lowest graded Bust quarter.

I dare you to post a lower grade Bust Quarter.
