Description
1912 Indian Two and a Half, PR66
High-End Condition Rarity
1912 $2 1/2 JD-1, R.4, PR66 PCGS. A single variety is
documented for the proof 1912 quarter eagle. The entire mintage of
197 pieces was delivered on March 18, 1912, and distributed
throughout the year as orders were received. It is believed that
only 90 to 110 coins survive. While this is a small number in the
absolute sense, it ranks the 1912 among the more accessible matte
proofs in the Indian quarter eagle series, at least as fine as PR65
-- the issue is still conditionally rare in higher grades.This Premium Gem displays fully struck motifs and rich, luminous golden-orange surfaces. The color leans ever so slightly toward lighter wheat-gold at certain angles. No distracting marks appear in the delicate frost over each side. Population: 13 in 66 (2 in 66+), 11 finer (8/25).
