<B>1903 $2 1/2 PR66 PCGS.</B></I> Garrett and Guth, in their <I>Encyclopedia of U.S. Gold Coins</B></I>, seem to suggest that the 1903 proof quarter eagle is an excellent choice for the type collector: "The Proof 1903 Liberty Head quarter eagle must be considered common for the type. There are more than 100 coins known of the date in Proof."<BR> On the other hand, the authors also note that most coins fall in the Select to Gem range, with finer pieces highly elusive. This elegant butter-yellow survivor offers vibrant, limpid mirrors that contrast slightly with the decisively struck devices. Carefully preserved with remarkable visual appeal. PCGS has graded only five examples in PR66, with just one coin finer (2/08).<BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> Christian Gobrecht<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
