CHARLOTTE GOLD QUARTER EAGLE. MINTAGE: 16,788. One of the more availoable but rare in high grades probably due to quality of strike. Strike for this issue varies greatly and are very scarce well struck. Most are not well impressed and others show extremely poor detail due to having been produced from a bulged die. The sharply struck pieces total around 25% of surviving population but still have weakness on top of Liberty's head and Eagle's right leg with other details well defined. GREAT DETAILS WITH LOTS OF LUSTER AND ORIGINAL SURFACES AND COLORATION. REAL BEAUTY!
