Enticing Gem Proof 1914 Indian Quarter Eagle 1914 Indian Quarter Eagle. Proof-65 (PCGS). CAC. Amazing quality and eye appeal for one of these early Matte Proof coins, with the surfaces virtually undisturbed and the color the lovely golden-olive to yellow on both sides. Perfectly struck as expected, but often these delicate coins show handling problems when closely examined, and Gems are truly rare. From the original mintage of 117 pieces there are believed to be 70 to 90 known today, most falling in grades below the present offering. Of the entire series of Proof Indian quarter eagles, only the 1915 is slightly rarer than the present coin, and any collector who has ever aspired to own one of these delicacies had best pursue this sparkling Gem.Numismatic Reflections by Q. David Bowers This high grade Proof is just right for any connoisseur desiring an example. Among Matte Proofs of the denomination this is the second hardest date to find. PCGS# 7963. PCGS Population: 7; 2 finer (PR-66+ finest).
