Several different design types of Bust Quarters were struck from 1796 to 1838. The 1796 with its Small Eagle reverse is a one year only type. The same obverse was paired with a Heraldic Eagle for Bust Quarters dated 1804 to 1807.
From 1815 to 1828 a Capped Bust design was used and Bust Quarters from 1831 to 1838 had a nearly identical design but were smaller in diameter.
A lovely example of this scarce date with solid detail and pleasing coin-gray surfaces. A first year of issue U. S. quarter and also a one year Small Eagle type. Only 6,146 coins were minted. Housed in an early green label holder.
