Select Proof 1905 Quarter Eagle
Excellent Type Candidate

1905 $2 1/2 PR63 NGC. CAC. This Select proof 1905 Liberty quarter eagle is an excellent choice for a proof gold type set, featuring fully mirrored yellow-gold surfaces with bold devices. Faint field-to-device contrast is evident, although not sufficient for a Cameo designation. Perhaps 65 to 70 proofs survive from the 144-coin mintage, far lower than the NGC and PCGS total population of 270 pieces. Census: 21 in 63, 47 finer. CAC: 2 in 63, 11 finer (9/16).(Registry values: P1)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 288V, PCGS# 7931, GSID# 8594)

Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
Weight: 4.18 grams
AGW: 0.12095oz
Mintage: 144
