A truly gorgeous NGC-certified Ultra Cameo Proof from the first year of the 20th century is one of the numerous highlights in our upcoming iAuction event. The 1901 Proof quarter eagle, one of 223 Proofs reported in the Guide Book, represents the high water mark of Proof production in the Liberty quarter eagle series. Curiously, the 1901 quarter eagle has the lowest circulation strike mintage among 20th century Liberty quarter eagles, but the largest Proof mintage for the same date range, 1901 to 1907. This is, of course, a blessing for today’s collectors, as there are nearly always opportunities to acquire a Proof of the design type and denomination dated 1901. The specimen offered in our iAuction is rich orange-gold with impressively frosted motifs and deeply mirrored fields, and with bold eye appeal that easily upholds the standards of the assigned grade. Once the bidding public lays eyes on this beautiful Gem Ultra Cameo Proof 1901 Liberty quarter eagle, the bids will soar. We only wish we had additional pieces for the underbidders!
