1818/5 25C Capped Bust Quarter PCGS MS66 (CAC)
1818/5 25C
SKU: 84993847
A standout early United States silver quarter with undeniable historical intrigue, this 1818/5 Capped Bust Quarter represents one of the most celebrated overdate issues of the John Reich large-size quarter series. Struck at the Philadelphia Mint, it features a dramatic “1818 over 1815” obverse, created when a previously unused 1815 obverse die engraved by Reich was later overdated by Robert Scot for service in 1818. The result is a classic early Mint economy story—reusing and repurposing dies—that today creates a highly collectible and visually engaging variety.
Certified PCGS MS66 and approved by CAC, this coin sits among the finest survivors available to collectors. Population data confirms its elite status: “5” graded at MS66 with “0 higher,” making this an end-of-the-line condition rarity for the issue. A coin at this level offers the dual appeal of a major early silver variety and a true top-grade registry-caliber example.
Key historical and collector highlights:
Overdate fascination: Two of the ten known die marriages for 1818 quarters used the overdated 1815 obverse; in the earliest use (Browning 1), the underdigit “5” is notably bold and clearly visible, a hallmark that has long drawn variety specialists
Philadelphia Mint production: A classic early federal-era quarter from the nation’s primary mint, struck during a formative period in U.S. coinage
Top-tier preservation: PCGS MS66 with CAC endorsement, underscoring exceptional quality for the type and confirming premium eye appeal
Population rarity: Just “5” certified at this grade with “0 higher,” a compelling point for advanced collectors and long-term desirability
Eye appeal is exceptional. Both sides display a dominant steel-gray base with warm champagne-gold and light bronze overtones, highlighted by soft rose, violet, and pale blue iridescence around the rims and across select high points. The toning adds depth to the design and complements the bold early quarter aesthetic, producing a richly original presentation that stands out in any serious cabinet.
