Minted in 1888, this coin originates from the late 19th century, a period marked by industrialization, westward expansion, and economic growth in the United States. It represents a tangible link to this transformative era in American history.

Designed by Christian Gobrecht, the obverse of the coin features a captivating portrayal of Liberty wearing a coronet inscribed with the word "Liberty," surrounded by stars. The reverse displays a heraldic eagle with outstretched wings, clutching arrows and an olive branch, symbolizing strength and peace.

The coin has been struck as a proof, resulting in sharp, well-defined details and mirror-like fields. The Proof 66 grade indicates exceptional quality, with only minor imperfections visible under magnification.

The Ultra Cameo designation signifies that the coin exhibits a high level of contrast between the frosted design elements and the mirrored fields. This contrast enhances the coin's visual appeal, creating a stunning effect that is highly prized by collectors.

Proof examples of the $2.50 Liberty Gold Quarter Eagle are relatively scarce, especially in high grades like PF66 Ultra Cameo. As such, they are highly coveted by collectors seeking to complete sets or acquire premium specimens for their collections.
