1890 $2.50 Liberty Gold Quarter Eagle PR-67 DCAM PCGS CAC

---

In 1890, the Philadelphia Mint struck an incredibly small run of proof coins for the Liberty Gold Quarter Eagle series. Only ninety-three of these two and a half dollar gold pieces were minted, making them exceptionally scarce survivors of late nineteenth-century American coinage. Crafted from 0.900 fine gold with a metal content of 0.1209 troy ounces, this specific coin has been certified in an extraordinary state of preservation, graded as Proof 67 Deep Cameo (PR-67 DCAM) with approval. The deep cameo designation highlights the intense contrast between the frosted design elements and the highly reflective, mirror-like fields, a visual characteristic that is highly prized by numismatists. This coin represents the classic Liberty design of the era, produced without a mintmark at the main Philadelphia facility. Its survival in such a high grade offers a rare, pristine glimpse into the minting artistry of 1890.
