Lot 1632
1878 Trade Dollar. NGC graded Proof 65. Lovely shades of blue and golden toning. Nice eye appeal. Proof only date. A frosted, fresh and colorful golden gem with intense mirror-reflective fields on both sides. NGC doesn't list this as "cameo" but it might well have. Crisply struck as well, and a pleasure to study under magnification! There is no running away from the fact this is a much superior trade dollar, and it is futile to say this Proof 65 wouldn't look perfect in your coin collection. 900 Proofs minted. Pop 38; 15 finer; 1 in 65 Star; 10 in 66; 4 in 67.
Estimated Value $5,500 - 6,000.
