***Auction Highlight*** 1850 C Charlotte TOP POP Gold Liberty Quarter Eagle $2 1/2 Graded ms62+ By SEGS. Up For Auction is a 1850-c $2 ½ Liberty Head Gold Quarter Eagle ms62+ SEGS. Struck in light yellow-gold with splashes of deeper color seen at the borders. This is the typical die state for this variety with multiple clash marks in the centers on both sides. This clashing appears to have somewhat weakened the letters in LIBERTY but the overall strike is a bit more detailed than usually seen for this issue. The luster is a bit grainy in texture which gives the coin a slightly lackluster texture. There are some minor contact marks in the fields that are in keeping with the assigned grade. The 1850-C quarter eagle is a bit less rare than its mintage of 9,148 pieces might suggest. There are as many as 250-300 examples known in all grades but almost all grade AU50 or below. In Uncirculated, this remains a very rare coin with around four to six properly graded pieces accounted for. We will note, no uncirculated example has come to auction in over 6 years. Tied for finest known. We have included two other ms62 examples for your comparison A Corey's Pick, Bid to Win, Don't let it get Away, you might not find its equal Coin. I give this coin my highest recommendation
