Lot 2138
1886 $5 Liberty. PCGS graded Proof 65 Cameo. A fantastic example of this low mintage date, only 72 were struck in Proof, and this is the second finest graded by PCGS. In fact, it is the only PR-65 graded, and we note a single coin graded higher as PR-66 by that service. Further, this coin is a "Cameo", which means it was an early strike, when the dies had the most polish on them, thus the devices are imparted with extra heavy frost, and the fields are especially well mirrored. Deep orange gold in color, and certainly one of the very finest known of this date in Proof. An outstanding opportunity to purchase a truly rare, beautiful and exciting coin.
Estimated Value $20,000 - 30,000.
