1860. PCGS graded Proof 65. A fully white proof. Only 1,000 struck. A fresh and original coin radiant with icicle-white afterglow from the fields to the devices. Our observation of the luster is that it surpasses most other Proofs of this year which, in some instances, lacks mirror depth compared to the later-1860s Proofs. Pertaining to the devices, this coin was struck with methodical precision throughout Liberty and the eagle, the shield, the date and legends. There is only minor diminishment in the topmost stars nearest Liberty's head. Seen sideways, flipped top to bottom, seen up close and at arms length, this is a most wonderfully good-looking Proof Seated Quarter; but if Liberty had a fault it would be a tendency to be a bit mysterious with her Mona Lisa-like facial air. She seems almost to be smiling. (As will be the successful bidder when this coin crosses the auction block.) Pop 18; 7 finer, 1 in 65+, 6 in 66. (PCGS # 5556) . Estimated Value $4,200 - 4,400.
