- 1848-C Liberty Quarter Eagle. Winter Variety 1 (9-F). MS-62 (PCGS). Light greenish yellow gold with nice luster and unmistakable remnants of prooflike reflectivity in the fields. The devices are sharp for this issue with light softness most noticeable on the eagle's right leg, while all other elements are nicely defined. Devices on both sides have a satiny aspect. Surface marks are light and scattered, with none standing out in particular, though a small planchet flake, as made, is noted on Liberty's brow and would serve to identify this piece in the future. However, as it is among the few finest known examples there aren't many coins to confuse it with. The present specimen is listed as Doug Winter's CC#1, though the citations under that entry actually include two coins. This piece is was previously offered by ANR (July 2003), and Stack's (March 2002), while the other example sold by the Goldberg's is actually graded MS-62 by NGC. The present coin is far finer than the NGC example in terms of strike, even if the technical grades happen to be the same. Unquestionably one of the finest extant of the 16,788 struck.<br />
