1906 Liberty Gold Quarter Eagle ($2.50)

Only 160 proof quarter eagles were struck in 1906 year, making this an exceedingly rare issue in any absolute sense.

This NGC PF61 example displays lovely original golden surfaces with tolerable hairlines considering the grade. The fields show good reflectivity while the devices maintain their intended frost, creating nice cameo contrast. A few light handling marks are present but don't detract from the overall eye appeal. The strike is sharp throughout with full detail in Liberty's hair and the eagle's feathers. A solid choice for collectors seeking an affordable entry into proof pre-1933 gold.
