Which variety is this 1825 Quarter?

I have a game. You get 1 point for quessing the correct variety. 1 point for quessing the grade and 1 Point for quessing where it was purchased. The first person to get all three points wins! image

  • I am impressed you knew who i purchased it from. Thought that may have took more effort, obviously i was wrong. I will do better next time!

    I've seen that coin on their site several times, and have drooled each time I've looked at it.
    Thus, I didn't need to cheat necessarily image


    Edited to add: I'm very jealous you snagged it, but glad it went to a forum member image

    The 1825 no reverse? image
  • Billet7Billet7 Posts: 4,923 ✭✭✭
    VF30, from DLRC, PCGS certified, B-1


    That means I win. No one person put all three in a post....ergo...I win. image
  • I guess billet7 wins, I didn't give the reverse because it was a game. You guys all grade too well. It would have been to ease, thus not much of a game.

    If you wanted to make it difficult, you should have just posted a pic of the reverse and not the obverse...that would have made things REALLY difficult. image

    Yes, that reverse was used on the following:

    1823/2 B-1 (but the die was unfinished)

    1824/2 B-1

    1825/4/2 B-1

    1828 B-2

    The only die crack that developed on this reverse, was a small crack from the rim through the left serifs of the E in UNITED. This occurred during the striking of the 1825/4/2 B-1 die marriage and only shows on some 1825's and all of the 1828's.
