Description
1857 Quarter Dollar, PR65
Tied for Finest at PCGS
1857 25C PR65 PCGS. CAC. Over the last two decades we have
offered 24 opportunities to bid on a proof 1857 quarter, including
just four examples in PR65 or finer grades. However, we have never
before offered a PCGS certified example of this issue finer than
PR64. The present piece is a wonderful and highly important Gem
proof with light gold and turquoise toning on the obverse and
richer gold, blue, and sea-green toning on the reverse. Both sides
have remarkably well preserved fields and bold design elements with
exceptional field-to-device contrast, nearly sufficient for a Cameo
designation. Population: 2 in 65, 0 finer (3/13).(Registry values: P1)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 23WJ, PCGS# 5553, GSID# 5279)
