1867-G Octagonal 25 Cents. BG-743. Rarity-7+. Liberty Head. AU-58 (PCGS). A landmark rarity among Period II octagonal quarters, and a handsome Choice AU example that also sports an impressive numismatic provenance. Near-fully lustrous, the surfaces readily reveal a semi-prooflike finish in the fields despite an overlay of light golden-honey patina. Pretty iridescent rose undertones, as well, with all design elements sufficiently bold for this challenging issue.<p>This rare variety was discovered by Kenneth Lee sometime before his 1970 publication of <em>California Gold Dollars, Half Dollars, Quarter Dollars</em>. It is attributed to maker Robert B. Gray & Co., as evidenced by the initial G on the obverse below Libertys portrait. Bob Leonard knew of only three examples of BG-743 when his census was published in 2003, the present example ranked CC#3 behind the MS-64 and MS-62 coins that are still listed in the <em>PCGS Population Report</em>. Since then a fourth example has been confirmed: the PCGS MS-61 coin that sold as lot 1790 in Ira & Larry Goldbergs February 2020 Pre-Long Beach Auction sale of the Di Perro Collection. NGC also reports a single grading event for this issue in MS-63. With only four or five examples confirmed and market appearance few and far between, the significance of this offering for the BG-743 octagonal half dollar can hardly be overstated. From the Oregon Collection. Earlier ex Doering, July 12, 1984; Dr. John Westal Rowe ("Jay Roe"); our (Bowers and Merenas) sale of the Jay Roe Collection, September 2003, lot 187. The plate coin for Doering and in the 2003 edition of the Breen-Gillio reference on California small denomination gold.
