Losbeschreibung

1882 Liberty Seated Quarter. Proof-67 Cameo (PCGS). For the year 1882, the Philadelphia Mint records the Proof mintage to be 1,180 pieces. Perhaps 15 percent of those show the desirable Cameo contrast between the mirror fields and frosted devices. A handful of these merit the Gem grade today, as the vast majority acquire light handling marks over the generations. This coin is a stunner, with virtually perfect surfaces, undiminished frost and exceptional eye appeal. While the obverse shows a fair degree of contrast, the reverse is intensely white and frosty on the eagle, all framed in classic russet-gold through the legends with patches of deep sea-blue in areas. Likely in the top dozen to survive of this date, and tied with just two others as the finest at PCGS. PCGS# 85583. PCGS Population: 3 in 67 Cameo, none finer.
