Description
Exceptionally Attractive 1898 Quarter
PR67 Deep Cameo
1898 25C PR67 Deep Cameo PCGS. The Philadelphia Mint had
perfected the manufacturing techniques of proof coinage by the late
1890s. Proof coins from this era can hold their own with the best
examples produced today, as evidenced by the magnificent coin
offered here. The frosty devices of this Superb Gem proof appear to
float over the deep watery fields, and whispers of light gold and
violet appear at the borders under magnification. Fully struck over
all the design elements. The surfaces of both sides are impeccably
preserved. The original proof mintage of just 735 pieces has been
drastically reduced over the years by improper cleaning, and many
examples were spent by noncollecting heirs during the hard days of
the Depression. Population: 13 in 67 Deep Cameo, 5 finer
(3/10).(Registry values: N4719)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 242D, PCGS# 95684, GSID# 5482)
Metal: 90% Silver, 10% Copper
