Description
1899 Quarter Eagle, PR68 Deep Cameo
Dramatic Contrast, Boldly Lustrous Motifs
1899 $2 1/2 JD-1, R.4, PR68 Deep Cameo PCGS. The Mint struck
150 proof quarter eagles in 1899. This issue is often found with a
high-quality strike, and Cameos are sometimes seen. Nonetheless, as
with any proof quarter eagle issue, conditional rarity creeps in at
the Superb Gem level. This piece is among just nine Deep Cameos at
PCGS that grade PR68, with only one numerically finer specimen
(12/25). Detail is sharp, and the frosty, luminous devices provide
dramatic contrast with the ink-black fields. Preservation is
superb, eye appeal is remarkable. An exceptional proof type coin.
PCGS Population: 9 in 68 (3 in 68+) Deep Cameo, 1 finer
