1886 Seated Liberty Quarter CACG PR 64+ DCAM CAC

The 1886 Seated Liberty Quarter CACG PR 64+ DCAM is a proof coin from the later years of the Seated Liberty series, struck at the Philadelphia Mint.

Key Features:

• Date: 1886

• Type: Seated Liberty Quarter

• Mint: Philadelphia (no mintmark)

• Grade: PR64+ (Proof 64 Plus)

• Designation: DCAM (Deep Cameo) – indicating strong contrast between the frosted design elements and deeply mirrored fields

• Grading Company: CACG (Certified Acceptance Corporation Grading) – a newer grading service backed by CAC, known for strict standards

• CAC Endorsement: The "+" and DCAM suggest it’s among the finer examples for the grade, likely with exceptional eye appeal

Background:

• Only 886 proof quarters were minted in 1886, making this a scarce coin even in circulated grades, and more so in high-grade proof with deep cameo contrast.

• Seated Liberty design (1838–1891) by Christian Gobrecht features Liberty seated with a shield and a pole with a cap, symbolizing freedom and readiness to defend it.

This specific coin would appeal to high-end collectors due to its combination of rarity, eye appeal, and strong third-party endorsement.
