Product Details
This is a NGC Graded Coin. You will receive the pictured coin. You are Buying a 1897 $2 1/2 Liberty Gold Piece graded PR67+ Ultra Cameo, JD-1, R.4. The quality of the Mint's proof production soared to new heights after officials installed a hydraulic press in 1894. The proof gold coins of the mid to latter part of the 1890s are among the best ever produced in this country, and that is on full display here. This is one of 136 pieces struck in proof format in 1897. John Dannreuther estimates that 70 to 80 of them survive, and the certified population data at NGC and PCGS confirms that few match the Superb Gem offered here. This 1897 Liberty Head $2.50 quarter eagle proof coin graded NGC PF 67+ Ultra Cameo is a magnificent addition to any high-grade American numismatic collection. Struck with heavily frosted design elements contrasting deeply against mirror-like fields, this coin showcases exceptionally sharp details and extraordinary eye appeal. The Plus (+) designation certifies that this coin resides at the absolute upper end of its grade class, making it a highly desirable candidate for advanced registry set collectors.
