Notes: Numbers above for the non 25 over 50 version. If the reverse of this coin has a 25 over 50 then its worth 10x as much. Just a heads up. There seems to have been a tendency of the mint to reuse old coins as many of the 1822 to 1828 Drapped Bust Quarters are some version of a re-strike.

In Average Circulated (AC) condition it's worth around $45.00, one in certified mint state (MS+) condition could bring as much as $7,361 at auction. This price does not reference any standard coin grading scale.
