Lot Description

Among the finest seen at either NGC or PCGS, this is a remarkable survivor from a limited mintage of fewer than 30,000 circulation strike 1897 quarter eagles. Immaculate surface quality displays a vivid luster on both sides with a rich frosty texture. The devices are razor sharp, every detail exquisitely rendered by an exacting strike. Whether a type or date collector, you will be hard pressed to find a better example of the type or issue than the Superb Gem offered here.
