Description

1900 Two and a Half, PR67 Cameo
Popular Turn-of-the-Century Issue

1900 $2 1/2 PR67 Cameo NGC. CAC. JD-1, Low R.4. The Philadelphia Mint struck a generous mintage of 205 proof Liberty quarter eagles in 1900 to satisfy collector demand for this popular date. The coins were delivered in quarterly batches of 88, 24, 24, and 69 pieces, all struck from a single pair of dies. Two different die states are known for the reverse. John Dannreuther estimates the surviving population at 120 to 150 examples in all grades, making this one of the more available proof issues and an extremely popular choice with type collectors. This spectacular Superb Gem proof exhibits sharp definition on all design elements and the deeply mirrored fields contrast boldly with the frosty devices. The virtually flawless orange-gold surfaces add to the terrific eye appeal. Census: 8 in 67 Cameo, 1 finer (11/23). CAC: 6 in 67, 0 finer (12/23).(Registry values: P1)
