Description
This is the proof version of the 1883 Hawaiian quarter dollar, HAPAHA. Chief Engraver Charles E. Barber designed the 1883 silver coins of King Kalakaua, which the San Francisco Mint struck for circulation in 1883 and 1884 without a mint mark. Proofs were made apart from that coinage for presentation. Medcalf and Russell, as reported by Wikipedia, give 26 proofs of each of the four denominations; another account gives six sets struck at Philadelphia in September 1883, so no figure is recorded on this page. Catalogue numbers: Medcalf-Russell 2CS-3. PCGS number 10989.
