– SOLDWe are thrilled to present an extraordinary opportunity to own a piece of early American coinage – the 1833 Capped Bust Quarter Dollar, graded PCGS PR64 DCAM. This exquisite specimen represents the pinnacle of 19th-century minting artistry and stands as a testament to the young nation's burgeoning economic prowess.
Minted at the Philadelphia Mint during Andrew Jackson's presidency, this quarter dollar is one of only a handful known to exist in proof condition. The PCGS PR64 DCAM designation signifies its exceptional state of preservation and striking visual appeal.
Only 5 examples were ever minted, which makes it rarer than classic multi-million dollar rarities like the 1804 Dollar which has traded hands for more than $8 million!
The "DCAM" (Deep Cameo) designation is particularly noteworthy for a coin of this era. It indicates a stark contrast between the frosty, raised design elements and the mirror-like fields – a feature rarely ever seen on early proof coinage.
1833 was a pivotal year in American history. The first tax-supported public library opened in Peterborough, NH. President Andrew Jackson sent troops to Charleston, South Carolina to enforce tariffs and the Slavery Abolition Act was passed in the British Empire, leading the way to it ultimate abolition in the United States as well.
This coin serves as a tangible link to this transformative period in our nation's past. With its exceptional rarity and superb condition, this 1833 Quarter Dollar represents a blue-chip investment opportunity.
Similar specimens have shown consistent appreciation over the decades, making this an ideal cornerstone for any serious numismatic portfolio.
