Introduction of Coins
Mint State examples of the 1841-O quarter dollar have survived in enough quantity to meet the needs of advanced collectors, though gems are rare. Two obverse dies and four reverses were utilized in striking this issue. Obverse 2 shows bold doubling of Liberty's shield and banner. The popularity of this variety extends beyond series specialists, and it is thus included within The Cherrypickers' Guide to Rare Die Varieties.Read More
