- Ultra Cameo Gem Proof 1898 Quarter Eagle
1898 Liberty Head Quarter Eagle. JD-1. Rarity-4. Proof-66 Ultra Cameo (NGC).
Deeply reflective and watery fields create an intense cameo contrast against the richly frosted design elements on each side. These devices show incredible intricate and evidence of die polishing in the recesses. Medium khaki-gold in hue and beautiful to examine under a light source. This is certainly one of the most well-produced examples from the mintage of a mere 165 pieces in Proof. Although there are more Ultra Cameo coins seen in this era than others, they represent well less than half of those struck, with the balance showing either a Cameo contrast or regular non-Cameo finish. Today there are perhaps 100 of these 1898 quarter eagles that exist in Proof in all grades, though this example is surely among the most desirable few.
NGC Census: 9; 21 finer.
