Lot 1257
1889. PCGS graded Proof 62 Deep Cameo. CAC. PQ. A lovely deep cameo proof. The surfaces show a few trivial signs of contact, which are magnified by the incredible reflectivity of the fields. The strike is deep and bold throughout, with the stars and head of Liberty seeming to float on a glassy sea of reflectivity. Matching quality on the reverse. Rare in this format of being a Proof, and especially so with the deep cameo contrast. Enticing to say the least. Only 41 struck. Just graded for the first time. Pop 1; 3 finer, 1 in 64, 1 in 65+, 1 in 67. (PCGS # 99105) Estimate Value $12,000 - UP
