Capped Bust Quarter Leads Heritage Auction

An 1827/3 Capped Bust quarter restrike that sold for $126,500 is the top lot in Heritage Auction Galleries’ sale at the Summer Florida United Numismatists show in West Palm Beach.

The Heritage cataloger specified that the die rust and other markers on this piece indicate that it is from a later group of restrikes, from which about a dozen pieces are known. This one was graded Proof-66 by Numismatic Guaranty Corp. It sold to an Internet bidder. The total prices realized in the July 12-13 auction was not available by press time. All prices reported here include buyer fees. An 1893-O Morgan dollar in NGC MS-65 came in next at $115,000.
