Description

1903 Two and a Half, PR67
Outstanding Proof Gold Type Coin

1903 $2 1/2 PR67 PCGS. JD-1, R.4. Ex: Simpson. A fully struck specimen with seamless reflective fields. Blushes of orange toning appear on the portrait and date, as well as portions of the borders. Blatant cameo contrast is displayed by the stars, legends, eagle, and curls, but Liberty's face and neck lack the contrast requisite of a Cameo designation, achieved at PCGS by only a single specimen auctioned in our October 2019 Dallas Signature. Despite a mintage of just 197 pieces, two die pairings are known for the proof 1902 quarter eagle. They are distinguished by slightly different date positions. Also, on JD-1, the lower loop of the 9 in the date is lightly repunched. Population: 11 in 66, 3 finer (10/20).(Registry values: P1)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 288T, PCGS# 7929, Greysheet# 8588)

Weight: 4.18 grams

Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
