Pleasing PR64 1910 Quarter Eagle

1910 $2 1/2 PR64 NGC. A charming near-Gem specimen of this "Roman gold" proof issue, which has roughly the same availability as several other proof Indian quarter eagle dates despite a stated mintage more than double that of the second-place issue. Mint reports indicate that 682 pieces were struck, but since so many fewer coins are known, it is probably that either the Mint's bookkeeping was in error or that over half the proofs produced were melted as unsold. This representative has the usual Roman gold mix of granularity and brilliance spread over bright yellow-gold surfaces. Minor hairlines and pinpoint contact account for the grade, though the eye appeal is superb for a PR64 example. Census: 31 in 64, 68 finer (6/09).(Registry values: N4719)
