- 1853 Round 25 Cents. BG-214. Rarity-7-. Liberty Head. MS-64 (PCGS). A beautiful semi-prooflike example with wisps of pale rose iridescence to otherwise bright medium gold surfaces. From the firm of Frontier, Deviercy & Co., active in San Francisco 1853 to 1864, and the successors to Joseph Bros., though only in their minting business. BG-214 has a crudely reeded edge with a gold-plated planchet over a lesser karat gold core. PCGS suggests just 10 to 14 examples of this elusive issue can be accounted for today. Take a good look at this rarity, as it tied for finest certified at PCGS and may be the only market offering of BG-214 for quite some time. Provenance: Ex DeWitt Smith Collection, December 1908; our (Bowers and Merena's) sale of the Virgil M. Brand Collection, Part II, June 1984, lot 1565. Bowers and Merena lot tag included.
