Gem $2600 New June 10! Glowing Frosted Luster, Pristine Surfaces, GFRC-Gem Rated, Oregon Beaver Collection. The 1889 Philadelphia quarter eagle issue sports a low mintage of 17,600 though sufficient quantities were saved during that period. A readily available date through MS64 with a dramatic population roll off starting in MS64+ in the PCGS population database. The CAC situation is similar with a census of 46 in all grades with only eight approved in full gem, with a pricing premium escalating over 3x. This new Oregon Beaver is a captivating offering that is most welcomed on the GFRC price list. Coloration is a uniform honey yellow-gold with glowing frosted luster during inspection. Pristine surfaces are noted with a 10x while the strike is weak at the eagle's left leg, a common issue per the PCGS price guide plate coins. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.0 (2015-2020) holder with CAC approval.
