Description

A copper impression from the modified Seated Liberty dies used for J-1093, this quarter pattern provides the base-metal comparison for evaluating the design changes. The copper composition accentuates the modifications to Liberty's drapery and star placement, making the differences from the standard design more visually apparent than they appear on the silvery standard silver version.

Rarity Notes

R-6 to R-7. Approximately 10-15 examples estimated.
