1901 Liberty Head Quarter Eagle. Proof-65 Cameo (PCGS). CAC.，Splendid orange-gold surfaces are both expertly produced and preserved to tempt strong bids from advanced numismatists. A fully original specimen, we note delicate iridescent highlights to predominantly smooth, nearly pristine looking features. Razor sharp in strike with bold cameo contrast to the finish, to see this coin is to admire it for both its technical quality and aesthetic appeal. With a mintage of 223 pieces the 1901 was produced in greater numbers than any other Proof quarter eagle of the Liberty Head type. This Gem offers an uncommonly high grade among the certified survivors and would make a particularly impressive addition to a Proof gold type set.，PCGS# 87927.
