PCGS MS61 1856-S $2.50
When one considers that the 1854-S is a six-figure rarity and none were struck by the San Francisco mint in 1855, the 1856-S is essentially the first obtainable quarter eagle from the new Western mint.
This well-struck example is slightly reflective and the mirrors in the fields tend to exaggerate the marks seen on both sides.
Not a single PCGS MS61 example has sold at auction since 2/2018 when a coin similar to this brought $4,800. We note a DL Hansen duplicate also graded PCGS MS61 currently available for sale at $6,350.
