1871 Standard Silver Quarter in Aluminum
Judd-1098, PR67 Deep Cameo
Three Coins Known

1871 25C Standard Silver Quarter, Judd-1098, Pollock-1234, R.8, PR67 Deep Cameo PCGS. CAC. Ex: Simpson. The Longacre design for the Standard Silver series with stars encircling the obverse, paired with the usually seen Standard Silver reverse from this year. Stuck in aluminum with a reeded edge. This design also exists in silver and copper, and approximately a dozen examples are known in each metal. Aluminum pieces are far rarer and apparently only three are known today. This is a superior Deep Cameo example. The fields are unfathomably deep in their reflectivity and the devices are heavily frosted. Brilliant throughout with a few tiny planchet flakes on each side.
