1898 $2 1/2 JD-1, R.4, PR66+ Deep Cameo PCGS. CAC. Mirrored fields are contrasted significantly with yellow-gold surfaces, and as the grade suggests, contain virtually no abrasions. The striking detail is exquisite, with no mentionable weakness. The 1898 proof quarter eagle's mintage of 165 coins was the highest up to that point in a series that peaked in terms of both Cameo quality and mintage figures in 1900, just two years after this coin was produced. Deep Cameo certifications comprise just 33.6% of PCGS's totals, and few best the present offering. PCGS Population: 4 in 66+ Deep Cameo, 10 finer (3/26). CAC: 7 in 66, 8 finer (3/26).
