Description
1875 Quarter, PR67+ ★ Cameo
Untoned Centers, Deeply Toned Rims
1875 25C PR67+ ★ Cameo NGC. CAC. A nominal mintage of 700
proof Seated Liberty quarters was achieved in 1875 and this coin is
probably the second-finest survivor. An expansive ring of untoned
silver in the centers of each side, surrounded by rich even shades
of cobalt-blue and golden-brown toning, lends Liberty a nice cameo
appearance, as do the mirrored fields and frosted devices. NGC and
CAC, combined, bestowed a lot of well-deserved superlatives on this
fully struck Superb Gem proof coin. Prospective buyers, however,
had better be ready with their most forthright bids, as it is
conceivable that some of these coins could disappear from the
marketplace for another 70 years. Census: 2 in 67 (1 in 67 ★
, 1 in 67+ ★ ), 1 finer (10/13).Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society.(Registry values: P2)

Truth Seeker: The Life of Eric P. Newman (softcover)
A powerful and intimidating dealer of the 1960s, backed by important colleagues, was accused of selling fraudulent gold coins and ingots to unsuspecting numismatists. Who would go up against a man like that and, over the course of decades, prove the fraud? Who would expose a widely respected scholar as a thief, then doggedly pursue recovery of coins that the scholar had stolen from an embarrassed numismatic organization, all over the objections of influential collectors who had bought coins with clouded titles? Eric P. Newman would - and did. Reserve your copy today.
