Description

1901 Two and a Half, PR67 Deep Cameo
Conditional Rarity in a Sought-After Grade

1901 $2 1/2 PR67 Deep Cameo PCGS. In the context of proof quarter eagles, the 1901 is among the most plentiful, but the issue is not nearly as common as the certified population reports suggest. NGC and PCGS combined list 260 submissions -- dozens more than were reportedly struck. As many as 100 of the listed 1901 proofs may be duplicate grading submissions. Auction appearances of high-grade coins such as the present piece are scarce. A recent offering of another PR67 Ultra Cameo NGC coin realized $28,200 (Heritage, 4/2015), lot 5266. A PR66+ Deep Cameo PCGS coin garnered $35,250 in our August 2013 Rosemont Signature sale. The present Superb Gem showcases glimmering black fields around frosty yellow-gold design elements with a few stray polishing lines (mint-made) in the mirrors. The strike is full, and the eye appeal is exceptional. A finer example of this coveted issue will be far out of reach for most enthusiasts, if one is offered in the near future. Population: 7 in 67 Deep Cameo, 4 finer (11/16).
