Lot Title:
|
1804 (B-1) Draped Bust quarter, PCGS AG-3

The wear pattern is a bit irregular, as dentilation disappears and then reappears sporadically around each side. Very important to the collector, the date and LIBERTY are prominent, but the reverse legend is weak in spots. An uncleaned example.

1804 PCGS AG-3.
