Rich, cascading absolutely gorgeous deep mint frost billows over fully struck devices. Glassy, pristine fields form a splendid backdrop to the yellow-gold major design elements, and every area of the surface is distraction-free. Stunning eye appeal that looks delicious. This piece screams PR68!!
The mintage of proof quarter eagles was a mere 165 coins in 1898. The population of Deep and Ultra Cameo proof quarter eagles is one of the five dates in the series, along with 1897 and 1899 through 1901 that can have stunning Deep/Ultra Cameo contrasts. This year does not have the large population of Cameo and non-Cameo examples that years such as 1900 do. This provides the collector/investor with a good selection of well-preserved examples, while also being a relatively scarce issue overall.
Even in the Deep and Ultra Cameo category, this is one of the finest examples available. Only one PR67+ Deep Cameo is certified at PCGS and this is that exact coin. Unique in 67+ Deep Cameo at PCGS
