Choice VG 1796 Quarter Rarity 1796 Quarter B-2. High 6. Rarity-3. VG-10 PCGS. This choice specimen is everything a collector could want, and everything a collector can appreciate. The warm golden-gray high points sit serenely against mark-free silver-gray fields that deepen slightly at the rims. Absolutely mark-free to the unaided eye, and a coin that holds its own just fine when a loupe is applied. There are some scattered marks, of course – a coin doesn’t circulate for decades and come through unscathed – but they amount to trivial factors overall in the eye appeal department.
From the first year of the denomination, and the only year with the Draped Bust, Small Eagle die combination. (No further coinage within the denomination would occur until 1804, by which time the new Heraldic or Large Eagle reverse that was in use on other denominations found its way onto the reverse of the newly resurrected twenty-five cents denomination. The 1804 quarter is another low-mintage rarity, as well as a date that is often overshadowed by the one-year-only design type of 1796.) If a mid-range type set or early quarter collection is your goal, you will do well to take a look at this coin; it is an exceptional representative example of the date, the grade, and the design type, and its lesser grade allows untold numbers of collectors to compete on an even playing field for one of the true treasures in the American quarter dollar series.
