Description: 1869-S $2 1/2 Liberty Head Gold Quarter EaglePCGS graded MS61 Garrett and Guth's "Encyclopedia of U.S. Gold Coins" comments, "Quarter eagles from the San Francisco Mint of this era all share common themes - they are usually found well worn and are rare in high grade. The 1869-S is no exception, as most of the coins are found for this year are relatively low grade."David Akers, in his Auction Analysis of 1975 suggested, "Scarce as a date... Most specimens I have seen were very bluntly struck and have relatively little detail on the hair around Liberty's face or on the eagle's right leg and neck... grossly underpriced, particularly in choice condition." He gave the 1869-S quarter eagle an average grade of VF30 although the current graded population suggest a better average would be in the VF45-AU50 range.
