STUNNING, ABSOLUTE RARITY
To appreciate the absolute rarity of the 1831 proof Capped Bust quarter—with a tiny mintage of just 20 pieces—look at the numbers behind famous 'rarities' such as the 1909-S VDB cent (484,000), the 1916-D Mercury dime (264,000), or the 1889-CC Morgan dollar (350,000). Even more compelling, with a scant 10 to 15 examples known to survive today, the 1831 proof quarter exists in an entirely different universe of numismatic scarcity.
The iconic Capped Bust design was first crafted for the quarter by John Reich. 1831 was the first year that William Kneass’s redesign was produced in proof and business strike, making this rarity a first year type.
This example is very attractive, especially when compared to the handful of others in this grade range. Please take a careful look at the photos provided. This coin is bright and lustrous with nice mirrored surfaces and zero distractions. The close up photos display an attractive golden-peach patina. The PCGS Population is 3 with none higher in Proof 64, making this example tied for Finest Known in Proof!
