1907 Barber Quarter. Proof-67 Deep Cameo (PCGS). CAC.
This is a very rare Superb Gem Barber quarter. Displaying not just technically exceptional surfaces, the Deep Cameo field to device contrast has been verified by CAC. With just the single ex Simpson Proof-68 DCAM graded higher at PCGS, this is a true prize for the pickiest of Barber quarter collectors who are working on a top ranking set. The devices are well struck with a thick, unbroken, creamy frosted texture that stands out as an icy "island" against the deeply beaming "sea" of stark black fields. The mirrors offer sleek smoothness and a depth of clarity that seemingly goes on and on. The untoned surfaces give this coin the look of a modern mint product, and not a 114 year old Barber quarter; it is virtual perfection.
PCGS# 95693. NGC ID: 242N.
PCGS Population: 3; just 1 finer in the Deep Cameo designation (Proof-68 Deep Cameo finest).
