Description: 1815 B-1 Capped Bust Silver Quarter - First Year of Issue! - NGC G4!Nice Circulated Original! Quite a Tough Coin, Looks Good 6 to Me! PCGS Coin Facts: 1815 is the first year for the Capped Bust Quarter type, and all known survivors are struck from a single die pair. In his “Early United States Quarters 1796-1838”, Steve Tompkins includes correspondence between Bailly Blanchard, head cashier of the Planters Bank of New Orleans, and Mint Director Robert L. Patterson, where Blanchard pleaded with Patterson to return only quarter dollars in exchange for the bank’s deposit of silver. After much hesitation, as no quarter dollar dies were available, Patterson gave in to Blanchard’s request, and production of the quarter dollar denomination was resumed. While regularly available in Choice grades, true Gems with original surfaces are elusive. After an eight-year hiatus, the U.S. Mint resumed production of Quarter Dollars in 1815. In that year, Mint employees produced a total of 89,235 Quarters, a significant reduction from the mintage of 1807 and far below the number of Quarter Dollars that would be produced three years later in 1818. Apparently, there was some economic reason for producing Quarter Dollars in 1815 which, hopefully, was satisfied by the new production. *Combined Shipping Available ON ALL Items, Request an Invoice or we will send you one after one business day.
