- 1844-O Liberty Seated Quarter. Briggs 1-A. Repunched Date. MS-63 (NGC). CAC. Varying shades of red-gold, golden-brown and turquoise decorate both sides. Lustrous surfaces are nicely preserved, especially for an early date Liberty Seated quarter from the New Orleans Mint. Even in the finer circulated grades the 1844-O can be elusive, while Mint State survivors are rare. This is not surprising since, without the benefit of inclusion in a find such as the New Orleans Hoard (which includes many Uncirculated 1840-O and 1841-O quarters), the 1844-O as an issue saw heavy commercial use during an era when there was no known numismatic activity in the South.
