Description
Ultra Cameo PR66+ 1891 Two and a Half
1891 $2 1/2 PR66+ Ultra Cameo NGC. CAC. The 1891 is the last of the Liberty quarter eagle proof issues to have an official two-digit mintage, in this case a mere 80 pieces. In the NGC Census Report, specimens are split almost evenly between Cameo and Ultra Cameo surfaces, a testament to the date's incredible striking qualities, and the top five NGC Ultra Cameo coins are three PR67 Ultra Cameo pieces, a PR66+ ★ Ultra Cameo, and this PR66+ Ultra Cameo, which somehow was not awarded a Star of its own (11/10). Pale lemon-gold surfaces are absolutely reflective in the fields with textbook frost across all the devices. A hint of orange-peel texture is noted close to the rims.(Registry values: P3)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 288E, PCGS# 97917, Greysheet# 8554)
Weight: 4.18 grams
Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
