Pricing & History
1863 $2 1/2 PR58 PCGS. From a proof-only mintage of just 30 pieces, the 1863 quarter eagle is one of the classic rarities among U.S. gold coins of any denomination. Among Liberty Head quarter eagles, only the 1841 and 1854-S emissions are considered on par with this storied date. Any offering of an 1863 quarter eagle is a noteworthy occasion for advanced collectors of this popular series. The rarity and importance of the 1863 quarter eagle were recognized almost as soon as the coins were issued. In the sale of the John F. McCoy Collection (Woodward, 5/1864), lot 1992 featured a gold proof set of 1863. Woodward disclosed: Ex: The Numismatic Gallery, purchased by the Norwebs on January 2,1953; The Norweb Collection Part II (Bowers and Merena, 3/1988), lot 2054, realized $23,100.
