Lovely Two-Toned 1898 PR 66 Quarter Eagle

1898 PR 66 Cameo NGC. An attractive, solid gem specimen that has thick, frosted luster on the devices set against watery fields. Just a whisper of milky patina coats either side and the only visible blemishes are a couple of microscopic marks below Liberty's chin. The mintage for this century-old issue is just 165 proofs, with survivors including a couple dozen pieces of equal or finer quality.
