1897 Two and a Half, PR65 Ultra Cameo
Starkly Contrasted and Rare
1897 $2 1/2 PR65 Ultra Cameo NGC. CAC. Ultra Cameo proof 1897 quarter eagles are widely scattered across the numeric grade spectrum, but this Superb Gem is nonetheless high-end for the issue. Only 136 pieces were struck, and likely fewer than 100 are known to survive. Certified population reports are unreliable due to resubmissions; currently, NGC and PCGS combined report 151 grading events -- far surpassing the number proofs actually struck. This CAC-endorsed Ultra Cameo displays incredible field-motif contrast and nearly pristine surfaces. The strike is razor-sharp. If the conditional rarity of this piece is not enough to spike interest in multiple collectors, the eye appeal certainly will. Census: 9 in 65 Ultra Cameo, 27 finer. CAC: 4 in 65, 15 finer (11/17)
