Lot 1501
1883 Hawaiian Quarter Dollar. NGC graded Proof 62 Brown M-2CPC-2 Copper, KM-5A. Struck in copper. Nice even toning. Only 18 struck. A quite affordable coin in this collectable grade, with the fine detail nicely displayed; variegated layers of toning envelop the surface on both sides, including some unusual but all the same very attractive shades of steel, purple, and blue, all on a base of deep graying-brown. A few light hairlines and some slight indications of contact account for the grade. Pop 1; the only brown proof graded at NGC.
Estimated Value $3,000 - 4,000.
From the 9/09 Hawaii Collection.
