1883 $2.50 AU58 认证号02260409, PCGS号7835

With a mintage of only 1,920 pieces, the 1883 quarter eagle is rare in Mint State. This near-Mint example shows prooflike fields and sharp design elements with rich, original orange-gold patina. A few light handling marks are not out of line for the grade. Housed in a first generation holder. Population: 20 in 58, 22 finer

Very scarce in all grades. Many deceptive first strikes exist, and some such specimens have been offered as proofs both at auction and privately. This has given rise to the erroneous conclusion that the 1883 is more common as a proof than it is as a business strike. This is not at all true and genuine proofs are really very rare.
