Description
Pleasing 1855 Arrows Quarter, PR64 Cameo
1855 25C PR64 Cameo PCGS. The 1855 proof quarter has an unknown, but certainly limited, mintage. Walter Breen, in his Encyclopedia of U.S. and Colonial Coins, simply says "Possibly 20 proofs known," while Larry Briggs, in his discussion of the 1855 Arrows quarter in The Comprehensive Encyclopedia of United States Liberty Seated Quarters, indicates "15+ proofs." NGC and PCGS have certified a total of 18 specimens, six of which are designated Cameos.A solid strike emboldens the design elements of this near-Gem Cameo example, all of which stand out against the mirrored fields. Close examination of the untoned surfaces reveals no marks worthy of mention. A small, inoffensive mark in the middle of Liberty's right (left facing) arm, however, might be useful in identifying the coin. Census: 1 in 64 Cameo, 2 finer (2/08). (Registry values: P3)
