Description

1913 Two and a Half, PR66+
Low-Mintage Matte Proof Issue

1913 $2 1/2 PR66+ PCGS. CAC. JD-1, R.4. The Mint struck only 165 proof quarter eagles in 1913, all included in the January 13 delivery. The drop in production from the year before reflected the fall-off in collector demand, which continued to slide in 1914 and 1915, leading to the discontinuance of proof coinage that latter year. Today, only 100 to 120 proof 1913 Indian quarter eagles are extant. High-grade examples with attractive preservation of the delicate matte surfaces are in high demand, and many collectors seek to assemble complete date sets of matte proofs. This Premium Gem displays sharp definition and exceptionally clean surfaces. Rich orange-gold and olive hues characterize each side. Only a handful of finer pieces are reported at PCGS. Population: 16 in 66 (3 in 66+), 4 finer. CAC: 10 in 66, 3 finer (6/23).(Registry values: N7079)
