1834 Plain 4 NGC VF-30, and an 1836 VF details/improperly cleaned.
|
|
Courteous Collection of Early Type. Comparing the two, the 1836 clearly shows better sharpness than the 1834 that NGC called VF-30, which implies that the actual sharpness for the 1836 should be... |

1834 NGC AU details/improperly cleaned.
|
|
Courteous Collection of Early Type. The whole surface exhibits only modest glossy texture and induced reflectivity, which implies that the cleaning was just moderately aggressive. Considerable... |

1834 NGC AU-58.
|
|
Hints of ruby-gold touch the butterscotch fields and endow the coin with some nicer eye-appeal than usual for the type. Patchy hairlines that dart into and through the fields likely represent... |

1834 XF details/cleaned.
|
|
A little glossy from an old cleaning, but by no means is this quarter-eagle ugly. Sharp details will benefit a type collector who wants to maintain a small budget. A small dig in front of the... |

1834 NGC XF-40.
|

Ideal mustard-gold patina meshes with sharp details to produce a gorgeous quarter-eagle that makes an emphatic statement of quality for type purposes. A tiny dabble of greenish verdigris in the far... |

1834 NGC MS-62.
|
|
Tantalizing sharpness and strong semi-prooflike character almost impart the appearance of a specimen striking, but of course, such a fantasy is not reality. This is simply a really nicely produced... |

1834 VF.
|
|
Mustard-gold patina thoroughly tints the entire coin, and condenses just a little toward the rims to add a nice accent of khaki. This has the appearance of being a completely original early gold... |

1834 PCGS XF-45.

Obvious remnants of sparkling luster still twinkle brilliantly from between the stars, in direct contrast with handsome mustard-gold patina that dominates the fields and tones the entire reverse. The... |

1834 NGC AU-58.
|
|
Luster permeates the borders, dulled in the broader areas by rub from circulation. Decent sharpness includes individual definition of each of the seven smaller curls below the headband. |

1834 ANACS XF-45.

|
1834 "small head" AU details/cleaned.
|
|
Light hairlines suggest modest effort to clean the surfaces, but such action was not severe, and judging by reflectivity in protected areas, this was a somewhat prooflike example when it left the mint... |
|
| 936 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2010 on 07/23/2010 | $1,250.00 |
|
1834 "large head" PCGS AU-55.
|
|
Being of softer metal, even early gold can be well struck, and this 1835 quarter-eagle displays very handsome detail, with prodigious sharpness especially apparent at each of the stars. Liberty's... |

|
1834 "small head" NGC MS-62.
|
|
Old and fairly harmless abrading of the fields has been overcome to considerable extent by recovery of royal-gold color against the rims. This provides a nicely framed appearance for each side, yet... |

1834 AU/very old cleaning.
|
|
Presently draped in pleasing yolk-gold tone, faint glossy texture suggests an old but unimportant cleaning that has recovered enough to possibly allow certification. Erratic hairlines above the eagle... |

1834 PCGS AU-55.
|
|
Moderate patina over corn-gold surfaces yields a decently original appearance, though the luster seems rather lacking for the grade. It is possible this coin was originally struck with some... |

|
1834 No Motto ANACS AU Details Cleaned, Net XF-45.

Fortunately, the ill effects of an old cleaning have been attenuated somewhat by the bronze color that has begun to re-emerge around the obverse rims. Some original mint luster persists in the... |

1834 Classic Head quarter-eagle Unc. Details.
|
|
A fairly thorough cleaning has imparted unnaturally prooflike fields mostly to the obverse, though the reverse did not entirely escape the jeweler's cloth. It is unfortunate, too, as the pleasing... |

1834 AU-50 Lightly Cleaned.

This Large or "Booby" head variety displays a dazzling yellow-gold aspect. Although it exhibits a trace of a delicate cleaning, smidgens of luster are present. Between the sixth and seventh stars an... |

1834 PCGS AU-50.
|

Classic bright gold reflects from the surfaces of this conservatively graded example. There is obvious luster still visible, but a nick above the Eagle is worth mentioning. Even so, this coin is... |
