Near-Perfect Specimen
1906 Liberty Quarter Eagle. Proof-68 Cameo (NGC).
The original mintage of this late-date Liberty quarter eagle Proof was a relatively generous 160 pieces. Regardless, it is very rare for a specimen to be as carefully preserved as the example in the present lot. At the top of the NGC Census Reportfor the issue, this 1906 quarter eagle is fully struck throughout and has a beautiful blend of yellow-gold colors. There is not a single detracting hairline or contact mark in evidence. Whereas most post-1901 Proof quarter eagles of this type were struck with an all-brilliant finish, this important Superb Gem exhibits appreciable field-to-device contrast that is a bit bolder on the reverse. A find for either the high-quality Proof type collector or the advanced gold specialist, this vibrant piece is sure to elicit strong bids when it crosses the auction block.
PCGS# 87932.
NGC Census: just 4; 0 finer with a Cameo finish. One other Proof 68 has been seen at NGC, that with the standard finish. No Proof 68s are certified at PCGS.
