1846 Proof-62 PCGS.

Sultry silver-gray throughout with plenty of mint brilliance retained within the central devices, especially in the eagle’s plumage. Needle-sharp in all design elements, right down to Liberty’s sandal and toes. Perhaps only 15 to 20 or so examples of this date were produced in the Proof format, though the combined total of certified examples at PCGS and NGC amounts to 23 pieces. We have no way of knowing if there are resubmissions among that figure, though PCGS enumerates nine pieces at Proof-64 but only two finer and two in lesser grades. Aside from a few light hairlines and one faint obverse field mark, this early Proof quarter is visually enticing. Herein lies an important coin, one that is pleasing for the grade, and one that could prove to be a great value to a savvy collector.
