Lot Description

1880 Liberty Seated Quarter. Proof-66 (NGC). Both sides of this gorgeous Gem are ringed in vivid reddish-orange peripheral toning that is more extensive on the obverse, which side also exhibits a blush of midnight blue patina along the upper border. More or less brilliant in the centers, this fully struck, modestly cameoed specimen is far better preserved than the typical survivor of this 1,355-piece Proof Liberty Seated quarter issue. NGC Census: 23; 21 finer in this category (Proof-68+ finest). PCGS# 5581. NGC ID: 23XC. Click here for certification details from NGC.
