1881 $2.50 Liberty Gold Quarter Eagle PR-66 DCAM PCGS CAC


0.1209 troy oz .900 1881 PCGS

The 1881 Liberty Gold Quarter Eagle represents an extraordinary moment in American numismatic production. Struck at the Philadelphia Mint, this coin belongs to an incredibly limited group, with a total mintage of a mere 51 pieces. This tiny production run makes the issue one of the most elusive and celebrated treasures of the pre-1933 era. Crafted from 0.900 fine gold, this 2.50 dollar denomination features the iconic Liberty design on the obverse, with the date 1881 clearly visible at the base. The coin has been graded in exceptional Proof 66 Deep Cameo (PR-66 DCAM) condition, a designation that highlights the intense, frosted contrast between the raised design elements and the deeply mirrored backgrounds. It also carries the prestigious sticker, confirming its outstanding quality for the assigned grade.
