Ultra Cameo NGC. Proof gold coins have held a place of honor in many of the greatest collections to come across the auction block in the past several decades. Names such as Bass, Pittman, and Trompeter are forever attached to the spectacular specimens that they had the pleasure of owning. Each of those renowned numismatists possessed an outstanding proof 1898 quarter eagle, and the present piece is certain to be treasured by the next great collector.
