1880 Quarter, PR68 Cameo
Gorgeous Original Toning
Among Finest Certified at PCGS

1880 25C PR68 Cameo PCGS. Briggs 2-B. Type Two Reverse with narrow feet on the A's in the reverse legend. The Mint produced 1,355 pieces of the 1880 Seated Liberty proof quarter, a mintage that stands as the largest proof production of the series. Availability for non-Cameo and Cameo proofs is scarce through Premium Gem, but becomes decidedly rare any finer. This gorgeous piece is one of just two PR68 examples in Cameo at PCGS, the other being Plus-graded at PR68+ Cameo, with none finer (9/25).

Forest-green toning dominates a majority of the obverse, leaving a window of brilliance across Liberty's waist and the left field. A narrow arc of plum-red serves as the transition between the toned and brilliant portions of the obverse. The reverse offers narrow but rich peripheral bands of autumn-brown, sun-gold, and ocean-blue. The remainder of that side is stone-white. This Superb Gem Proof is a needle-sharp specimen with a pristine appearance and exceptional eye appeal. Population: 2 in 68 (1 in 68+) Cameo, 0 finer (9/25).
