1904 $2.50 Liberty. NGC graded Proof 68 Cameo. Perfection! A dazzling honey golden color gem. Pop 2; none better in Cameo. Incredibly beautiful light gold luster reflects off the fields and goes smashingly well with the pristine frosted devices. What a coin! And hard to believe this has found its way onto the market, since most of the high-end Proofs trade hands quietly in private transactions behind closed doors. They rarely see the light of day. A fairly bold impression is always left by the recoil of the dies that struck this year's coinage, 1904 quarter eagle Proofs are noted for their beautiful quality; just the same, we can report that this specimen, above all the others, is simply outstanding in its detail and razor-sharpness.
Estimated Value $35,000 - 40,000.
