1881 LIBERTY HEAD $2.5 PCGS PR65+ Deep Cameo CAC

Gem Proof 1881 Liberty Head quarter eagle certified PR65+ Deep Cameo, with strong cameo contrast noted in the description. Only 51 proofs were struck, giving the date immediate importance among proof gold specialists. The Deep Cameo designation highlights the contrast between frosted devices and reflective fields, a feature that is particularly compelling on Liberty Head gold. The plus grade adds further technical distinction within the Gem range. Proof quarter eagles of this period combine low production, delicate detail, and the preservation demands of gold surfaces, making this coin a notable survivor of a scarce issue.
