1846 Liberty Head Quarter Eagle. MS-61 (PCGS).，A find for the astute gold specialist, this impressive 1846 quarter eagle offers overall full striking detail and satiny light gold surfaces. Quarter eagle production at the Philadelphia Mint amounted to just 21,598 coins in 1846, down significantly from the 91,051 examples struck the previous year. This issue is scarce to rare in circulated grades, and the leading certification services report only a handful of grading events for Uncirculated examples, none finer than MS-63. As one of the few Mint State 1846 quarter eagles that we can recall handling, this represents an important bidding opportunity.，From the A.J. Vanderbilt Collection. Acquired from M.B. Simmons, September 1980; via Stacks.，
