- Awe-Inspiring Proof 1895 Quarter Eagle Among the Finest Certified 1895 Liberty Head Quarter Eagle. JD-1, the only known dies. Proof-67 Ultra Cameo (NGC). Enchanting orange-gold surfaces combine frosty devices with deeply mirrored fields, the finish strongly cameoed and highly appealing. Fully struck, as befits the method of manufacture, and smooth enough to border on pristine. At 119 pieces produced, the 1895 has one of the more generous mintages among Proof Liberty Head quarter eagles. The rate of attrition for this issue is higher than that of many of its contemporaries, however, and with only 60 to 70 coins believed extant (per John W. Dannreuther, 2018), the 1895 is rarer than such other Proofs of the type as the 1897, 1898 and 1899. As one of the finest examples known to the major third party certification services, the importance of this Ultra Cameo Superb Gem cannot be overstated. NGC Census: 10; 3 finer in this category (Proof-68 * Ultra Cameo finest). PCGS# 97921. NGC ID: 288J. Click here for certification details from NGC.
