1861 Quarter Eagle (1861 $2.50) New Reverse, PCGS MS61 CAC. Civil War Date. 1861 $2.50 Liberty Head Quarter Eagle.  Despite having one of the larger mintages within the series, the demand for this date as a type coin and a memento of the Civil War is constant. Typically well struck, this first Civil War issue in the quarter eagle series has two types which are differentiated by old and new reverses. The new reverse type was issued in unknown quantities alongside the old reverse in 1859, 1860, and 1861 and features a modified reverse design with smaller arrowheads and letters.

A good strike is typical for this date but this example is absolutely hammered. Rich golden wheat hues and abundant luster combine to give this piece the eye appeal of a significantly higher grade specimen. In addition, CAC has reviewed and approved it as being premium within its assigned grade. This very attractive mint state quarter eagle will fit nicely into a Civil War date collection, type set, or numismatic investment portfolio. A gorgeous and historic gold piece!
