- 1900 Liberty Head Quarter Eagle. JD-1, the only known dies. Rarity-4-. Proof-53 (PCGS). Original golden-olive patina blankets both sides of this fully defined, appreciably sharp specimen. Noticeable friction in the fields is all that seems to preclude a finer grade. A generous mintage (for the type) of 205 pieces conceals the rarity of the Proof 1900 Liberty Head quarter eagle in numismatic circles. Although this is one of the more frequently encountered issues of its type, not many more than 100 examples are extant, suggesting that nearly half of the mintage was destroyed in the Mint when they coins failed to sell to contemporary collectors. Clearly this issue represents a significant find for the advanced collector at any level of preservation. PCGS# 7926. NGC ID: 288P. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
