Perhaps you've never heard of the famous "C" mint, located in Charlotte, North Carolina. Even many coin dealers and serious coin collectors know little about this Eastern branch of the U.S. Mint. In fact, it's one of the best-kept secrets in all of coin collecting! Only the $1, $2.5 and $5 gold coins were minted at the Charlotte Mint.
The 1844-C Liberty Head quarter eagle hasa mintage of only 11,622. This quarter eagle is scarce in all grades andprohibitively rare in high grades. Just a few coins have reached the Mint State level. |
