Lot 769
1893. NGC graded Proof 68 Cameo. A super white gem. Only 792 struck. Only 792 Proofs were struck in 1893, but the quality of those coins was uniformly high with a fairly substantial percentage of carefully made cameo coins available of this date than many later ones we can think of from this era. Of course, at the Superb PR68 level, this piece is almost without peer. It is the among the finest certified by NGC, and one for a connoisseur of the Barber Dime experience. Just a few are known finer. The fields on this piece show fathoms-deep mirrors and shimmer accordingly. The devices are noticeably frosted with strong contrast evident on each side. Utterly brilliant. A remarkably well preserved specimen. Pop 4; 3 finer, 2 in 68 Star, 1 in 68+ Star.
Estimated Value $6,000 - 6,500.
