Description

The 1861 Proof Quarter Eagle Pattern - J-282 is a proof quarter eagle struck at the Philadelphia Mint, part of the Civil War Patterns (1860-1865) series. USPatterns thinks this copper striking of the regular 1861 quarter eagle dies was more likely made for a collector than to test the dies. It is struck in copper with a reeded edge; USPatterns rates it R-7. Catalogued as Judd-282, Pollock-333, A/W 344. Cataloged as PCGS #12114.
