    I picked up two 1876-P Seated Liberty quarters, and I noticed one looked different then the other. After a little research, I think one of them is the Type I reverse. I know little to nothing about the series, and only grabbed them because they were cheap, and had a nice look. But now I'm wondering if I accidentally cherr ypicked a rare variety. It's Breen number 4080, fyi

    Please look at the picks, and see if you agree. If it is a Type I reverse, what king of premium does it carry?

    For reference, here's the NGC page on it; https://www.ngccoin.com/coin-varieties/seated-quarters/1876-type-1-rev-25c-5216


    Normal (Type II) Reverse:

    Type I (I think):

    And the full coin:

    Yes I believe that is so. I have a 1876-CC T.2, if only it was T.1

    Thanks @Paddy54 ! What kind of value would the Type I add to the coin, if any? (If you know).

    Here is a little information on this one type1 rev. Is rare. In all 101 obv. 108 revs.type 1 reverse are leftovers from 1875.
    A few proofs used the 72 rev.
    This Centennial year in the 76 quarter about 11 varities on die marrages, mint marks, as well as misplaced dates. Making the date a variety collector dream.
