Description

NGC 1893 Isabella Quarter PR 64. Surely one of the most desirable commemorative issues in the entire 144-piece series, proof Isabella quarters are also one of the most controversial. These coins lack specific die diagnostics and unquestioned proofs are very rare indeed. This piece appears to be beyond any doubt as far as proof status is concerned. The fields are measureless in their depth of reflectivity and the striking details are unparalleled except among other unquestioned proofs. The surfaces are brilliant with a soft violet patina, and when closely examined reveal a few scattered tiny lint marks, a result of static electricity from the dies having been wiped with a cloth (a trait commonly found on proofs but usually lacking on business strikes). Population: 4 in 64, 3 finer (4/94).
