Lot 423
1886. NGC graded Proof 66 Cameo. Mostly untoned. Only 886 minted. Ice-cold white color covers the fields of this handsome mirror-smooth coin, the devices cloaked in stunning cameo frost. Having that in mind for the mint originality and pure joy in seeing an 1886 Seated Quarter Dollar this spectacular, we see as well a full, bold transfer from the Proof die to planchet notable in the stars, Liberty, the eagle with shield, and the stroll up above. IN GOD WE TRUST appears on these in 1866 to 1891 issues. The series had a long run itself, with Miss Liberty serene gazing out from her rocky perch from 1838 until 1891, when the Barber coinage was authorized as its replacement. Pop 15; 21 finer .
Estimated Value $2,300 - 2,400.
