Description

Gorgeous 1905 Liberty Quarter Eagle, PR67

1905 $2 1/2 PR67 NGC. This gorgeous Superb Gem proof has rich orange-gold surfaces with pinpoint design details. The mirrored fields on both sides further enhance the reflective devices. Little contrast is evident, as usual for this issue and all of the early 20th century proof coinage. Pristine surfaces are mark-free, even when examined with 10x magnification. The present offering is only the second PR67 example of the date we have ever offered, an extremely important opportunity for the type collector or specialist.
The Philadelphia Mint produced 144 proof 1905 quarter eagles, of which perhaps half survive today, mostly in lower grades and rarely with any degree of contrast. NGC and PCGS together have certified 254 submissions of the issue with an average grade of PR63. Only 32 of those submissions are also designated with cameo contrast. Just two examples have been certified finer, confirming the importance of the present example. Census: 8 in 67, 2 finer (6/09).
