  • Clear overdate error in a coin that has survived over two centuries! Highly sought after and rare to find!

The 1806/5-P Draped Bust Quarter Dollar is a fascinating relic from the early days of American coinage, steeped in history and intrigue. This coin, graded VG-10 by PCGS, offers collectors a glimpse into the craftsmanship and challenges of the early U.S. Mint. One of the most captivating aspects of this coin is the overdate error, where the date 1806 was struck over an existing 1805 die. This error is clearly visible upon close inspection, adding a layer of uniqueness and rarity to the coin.

The Draped Bust design, created by the skilled engraver Robert Scot, features a dignified portrayal of Lady Liberty on the obverse, her flowing hair and draped neckline reflecting the classical ideals of the time. The reverse displays the heraldic eagle, a symbol of the fledgling nation’s strength and resilience. This quarter is part of a series minted from 1796 to 1807, a period when the young United States was still finding its identity both politically and economically.

The 1806/5 overdate is more than just a minting mistake; it’s a testament to the resourcefulness of the early Mint workers, who often reused dies to conserve resources. This practice occasionally resulted in such fascinating errors, which have become highly sought after by collectors today.

Owning the 1806/5-P Draped Bust Quarter Dollar is like holding a piece of early American history in your hands. It’s a coin that has survived over two centuries, carrying with it the stories of a nation in its infancy. Whether you're a seasoned collector or new to numismatics, this quarter dollar offers a compelling blend of historical significance, artistry, and rarity, making it a prized addition to any collection.
