1896 Liberty Head Quarter Eagle. Proof. Unc Details--Spot Removed (PCGS).，With a full strike, vivid golden yellow patina and a boldly cameoed finish, this is an exceptional coin relative to the assigned grade. Evidence of minor tooling associated with a faint alloy spot in the right obverse field explains the PCGS qualifier, but the overall quality and eye appeal are worthy of praise. Solid bids are encouraged for this rare Proof 1896 quarter, one of perhaps 70 to 80 survivors from a mintage of 132 pieces.，PCGS# 97922. NGC ID: 288K.，，From the Alexander Collection. Earlier from Frank Katen/Milford Coin & Stamp Co.s Boston ANA Sale of August 1948, lot 687. Lot tag included.
