1898. NGC graded Proof 68. Lovely rainbow toning of delicate teal, rose and gold on both sides. The fields are essentially perfect in preservation with no signs of handling whatsoever, with Liberty's face and neck absolutely perfect. The quality here is memorable, and this coin was clearly set aside from the time of issue and carefully preserved since that day. Were it not for the incredible toning, this coin is virtually the same quality as the day it was struck. Exceptional eye appeal throughout! Only 735 struck. Pop 18; only 1 example graded higher in 69 for regular proof at NGC. Estimated Value $9,000 - UP
