1806, 6 over 5. Browning-1, Rarity 2.
.
PCGS graded VF-
35.
CAC APPROVED.
As might be expected, only one die pair-
ing was used to coin the overdate die variety of the 1806 quar-
ter, Browning-1. The 5 underdigit is bold and readily evident
under the 6 without the aid of magnification. An appealing mid-
grade survivor, both sides exhibit moderate steel-lilac and blue-
green toning with lighter design highpoints. Good definition for
the grade. (

1852-O PCGS graded Genuine Unc Details
. Cleaning.
PCGS declares a light cleaning, but the evidence of this is well-
hidden beneath mottled lilac-gray toning on both sides. It also
exhibits Uncirculated detail with a moderately sharp strike.
Knowledgeable collectors know the rarity of the 1852-O quarter,
especially in high grades. Many ultimately settle for heavily
worn or damaged pieces. This lot will draw substantial attention
from Seated quarter specialists. (

PCGS graded Proof 64 Cameo PQ.
CAC
APPROVED.
Colorfully toned on the obverse with reflec-
tive fields and frosty motifs. Peripheral shades of russet and
cobalt-blue are noted while the reverse is essentially
untoned. A rarity from an unknown but tiny mintage, per-
haps on the order of 30 pieces, with just a small proportion
of that number currently known in all grades. Among the
finest proofs of the date certified by PCGS. A few marks are
noted on the plastic holder and should not be confused
with surface problems. An excellent opportunity for an
advanced Seated Liberty quarter specialist or a collector
who simply appreciates rare U.S. coins.

1857
.
PCGS graded MS-65
. This nicely toned example exhib-
its a bright Gem-quality sheen overall. The strike is good, save
for the obverse stars, which are typically soft, while a lone abra-
sion on Liberty's head is noted solely for accuracy. Seemingly
earmarked for inclusion in a high-grade type set.
