Description
1908 Quarter Eagle, PR63
Inaugural Matte Proof Issue
1908 $2 1/2 PR63 PCGS. JD-1, R.4. This is one of about 100
to 120 known surviving examples of the first-year 1908 Indian Head
matte proof quarter eagle. The sunken-relief nature of the new
design resulted in this distinctive sandblast finish that
collectors of the era were put off by. However, these proofs are
highly regarded today. Finely textured yellow-gold surfaces exhibit
the distinct mattelike appearance. Design detail is complete, and
contact is minimal.(Registry values: N4719)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 289G, PCGS# 7957, GSID# 8619)
