The 1836 Classic Head Quarter Eagle, Script 8 variety, represents one of the more accessible dates within the short-lived Classic Head series of 1834 through 1839, yet it remains elusive in finer Mint State preservation. With an estimated surviving population of approximately 1,250 pieces, examples that combine strong technical quality with attractive eye appeal are decidedly scarce. This example displays bright straw-gold coloration accented by bold mint frost that remains evident in the protected areas, lending the coin a fresh and visually engaging presence for the grade. With the only relevant auction comp for this exact piece when it sold 2 years prior for $4,320 08/24 HA, we have since seen strong demands for CAC Uncirculated pieces especially for the quality and price conscious gold type collector seeking an attractive representative of the Classic Head design.
