Not Sold Description
Splendid PR66 1866 Motto Silver Dollar
1866 $1 Motto PR66 NGC. CAC. The 1866 Motto silver dollars, produced to the extent of only 725 proofs, to some extent bask in the reflected glory of the fabulous 1866 No Motto proofs, of which but two specimens are known. In any case the 1866 Motto dollars are rare and elusive in their own right, as popular first-year issues of this important post-Civil War coinage design change.This Premium Gem proof boasts splendid reflectivity despite moderately intense coloration on both sides, with pinkish-gold centers ceding to electric blue at the rims on both sides. Neither side reveals any mentionable distractions, as expected for the grade, although a small, curling strike-through at the scroll around T(RUST) provides a pedigree identifier. Census: 4 in 66, 2 finer (6/09).(Registry values: N7079)
