Remarkable PR67 1911 Quarter Eagle

1911 $2 1/2 PR67 NGC. A surprisingly high 191 proof quarter eagles were produced in 1911 but far fewer are known today, suggesting melting of the unsold pieces at year's end. Probably half the mintage, or 90-110 individual coins, may exist today in all grades. A surprising number of high grade examples are known of this year, making it a good date for type purposes. The surfaces of this piece show the usually seen greenish hue, not quite as deep as the 1908 but darker than other matte proof years. There are a couple of barely discernable shiny spots on each side. Exceptional quality. Census: 19 in 67, 12 finer (3/10).(Registry values: N7079)
