详细说明: 1897 Liberty Quarter Eagle. Proof-66 Deep Cameo (PCGS). CAC. One of the best produced and most consistently attractive issues in the proof Liberty quarter eagle series, the 1897 is often characterized by the bold field to device contrast noted for the present example. Even so, the contrast we see here is stronger that usual, a feature we attribute to the thickness of frost on the central devices. What also sets this coin apart from the typical survivor of this 136 piece proof delivery is the level of surface preservation. Both sides are devoid of distracting contact marks or other blemishes, although they do reveal subtle pale-rose highlights to dominant medium-orange color. A captivating, premium quality Gem that belongs in the finest proof type set of classic U.S. Mint gold.
