1884 Quarter Eagle, PR66+ Cameo
One Numerically Finer at PCGS

1884 $2 1/2 PR66+ Cameo PCGS. CAC. JD-1, High R.5. Mint records indicate the Philadelphia Mint struck 73 proof Liberty half eagles for collectors in 1884, down a little bit from the 82 piece proof mintage of the year before. A single die was used to strike all the proofs. John Dannreuther estimates the surviving population at just 30 to 35 examples in all grades today. This Plus-graded Premium Gem exhibits sharply detailed design elements, with a rich coat of mint frost that contrasts boldly with the deeply reflective fields. The lemon-yellow surfaces are impeccably preserved and eye appeal is terrific. The high quality within the grade is confirmed by CAC. This coin is pictured on PCGS CoinFacts. Population: 4 in 66 (1 in 66+) Cameo, 1 finer. CAC: 3 in 66, 0 finer (11/23).(Registry values: P3)
