Description
A second proof quarter pattern for 1869, continuing the expanded experimental program for the twenty-five cent denomination. The quarter's larger silver planchet compared to the dime provided more generous space for design experimentation, allowing more complex compositions and greater detail in portrait work. J-722 features die characteristics distinct from J-721 that may represent an entirely different design approach or a variation on the first variety's theme.
Rarity Notes
R.6. Approximately 15-20 examples estimated.
