- Exciting Cameo Proof 1901 Quarter Eagle
1901 Liberty Head Quarter Eagle. JD-1, the only known dies. Rarity-4-. Proof-64 Cameo (PCGS).
A dusting of pale silver-olive iridescence accents the bright reflectivity in the fields of this lovely specimen. The design elements are fully rendered and further distinguished by a soft satin texture. Dominant deep gold color throughout, with an impressively smooth appearance for the Choice Proof grade level.
At 223 pieces produced, the 1901 has the highest mintage in the Proof Liberty Head quarter series. It is also popular for type purposes as the final issue of the type produced with a cameo finish. Although the 1901 is plentiful by classic Proof gold standards, survivors are scarce in an absolute sense with John Dannreuther (United States Proof Coins, Volume IV: Gold, 2018) accounting for 130 to 170 coins extant in all grades. With well preserved surfaces that have obviously been handled with care since the time of striking, the offered coin is sure to please the discerning Proof gold type or date collector.
PCGS Population: 7; 5 finer in this category (Proof-67+ Cameo finest).
PCGS# 87927. NGC ID: 288R.
