1854 Arrows Quarter, PR64
Rare in All Grades

1854 25C Arrows PR64 PCGS. This is the first of a brief two-year design type, and it is an important rarity in Proof format. Although in the past the rarity has sometimes been overstated, there are relatively few Proofs known. Estimates range from just 10 pieces (Walter Breen) to 12 to 15 coins (David Akers). The PCGS estimate is 10 to 15 surviving examples, which has remained unchanged for at least 15 years. These estimates further suggest that the certified population (27 coins at PCGS and NGC combined) is greatly inflated by resubmissions and crossovers. Our Auction Archives list 30 prior appearances of the 1854 Arrows proof, but that figure is also misleading as many of those appearances represent just a handful of different coins.

This is a sharply struck coin with deeply reflective fields and lustrous devices. Slight cameo contrast is masked by dark steel and iridescent toning on both sides. Population: 10 in 64, 2 finer (12/22).
