1908 $2.50 Indian Head Proof – PCGS PR67+ (CAC), Philadelphia Mint
An extraordinary Superb Gem from the first year of Bela Lyon Pratt’s revolutionary incuse Indian Head design, this sandblast Proof Quarter Eagle unites historic significance with elite condition. In 1908, the Philadelphia Mint debuted the new recessed motif—an austere Native American portrait and a powerful eagle—struck for circulation in large numbers, while a select 236 Proofs were produced with the experimental sandblast (matte) finish. Those Proofs proved popular with advanced collectors, yet time has shown that truly superb survivors are exceedingly rare.
Certified PCGS PR67+ and approved by CAC, this example sits at the very pinnacle of the issue. The matte surfaces display a rich, even golden hue with exceptional texture, razor-sharp detail, and outstanding eye appeal—attributes that place it firmly in Condition Census territory for the type.
