Description

1865 Liberty Seated Quarter. Proof-64 Cameo (NGC).

Minimally patinated in smoky golden-silver iridescence, all viewing angles allow ready appreciation of a desirable cameo finish. The final year of the Civil War saw the Philadelphia Mint strike 500 Proof quarters, the last regular issue of the No Motto Liberty Seated design type. These coins were distributed as part of the year's silver Proof sets, and more than half are believed extant in numismatic circles. The typical 1865 quarter falls into the Proof-60 to Proof-62 grade range, however, although the persistent collector will usually be able to procure a Choice specimen in Proof-63 or Proof-64 within any given year of numismatic auction activity. With a scarce Cameo designation from NGC, the present lot represents an important bidding opportunity for the advanced Proof type or date collector.

PCGS# 85561. NGC ID: 23WT.
