Losbeschreibung

The frosty snow-white design elements appear to float untethered amid deeply reflective fields. An overlay of champagne-pink iridescence engages the reverse, while the obverse remains brilliant with an ice-white appearance. Fully struck and captivating to review in direct lighting.<p>Along with the Proof issues of 1896 and 1898, the 1897 is the most consistently well produced and attractive in the Barber quarter series. Even so, few survivors from a mintage of 731 Proofs are as exquisite as this gorgeous specimen. Perhaps only 15 to 20% percent of these display deep cameo contrast, and even those are typically in grades of Proof-66 and lower. At Proof-67 DCAM, the present piece is among the very finest known to PCGS and CAC, and for both the type and date. An important opportunity for both type collectors and Barber silver specialists, and a coin that will surely see aggressive bidding.
