Extraordinary 1901 Barber, PR67 Cameo

1901 25C PR67 Cameo PCGS. A fully brilliant and entirely untoned Superb Gem with amazing cameo contrast, the surfaces entirely void of contact marks or other blemishes. Advanced Barber coinage specialists will greet the present offering with considerable enthusiasm, for Cameo proof 1901 and later Barber quarters, especially through 1905, are extremely important condition rarities. At the time, the Mint workmen were instructed to subdue cameo contrast as undesirable. To illustrate the rarity, PCGS has certified 213 proof Barber quarters dated 1901, but only 25 of those pieces are designated Cameo, and just one is a Deep Cameo. None have been certified numerically finer than the present piece. Population: 3 in 67 Cameo, 0 finer (3/09).
