Lot 1756
1872 Liberty Seated Dollar. PCGS graded Proof 64 Deep Cameo. Another beautiful proof Seated dollar with correctly attributed deep cameo contrast and fantastic eye appeal! Liberty is blast white and has shifting frosty luster. Every facet of the obverse is razor sharp and near-gem in quality. For identification, there is a mint made diagonal planchet impression across the central portion of Liberty The fields are fully reflective and white and have a very subtle lavender toning in some of the periphery. Reverse eye appeal equally matches the obverse and the lettering and devices are fully struck and ridiculously frosty. The motto has repunching in the letters, most heavily on letters I, N, G, O and W. We would like to point out the impeccable taste used in assembling these proof dollars. When reviewing this spectacular run, note that the 1867, 1868, 1870 and this issue, 1872, all look almost exactly the same. The quality of these pieces and the eye appeal has been matched to the highest degree and this is truly coin collecting at its finest! PCGS has graded 3 in PR-64DCAM, 1 in PR-65DCAM and 1 in PR-66DCAM (PCGS # 97020) .
Estimated Value $6,000 - 7,500.
