Description
1888 Gold Dollar, PR66+ Deep Cameo
Glimmering 19th Century Proof
Endorsed by CAC
1888 G$1 PR66+ Deep Cameo PCGS. CAC. JD-1, High R.4.
Glimmering, high-contrast 19th century proof gold coinage is
usually out of reach for most collectors, but the 1888 gold dollar
presents a more accessible entry point. A total of 1,079 proofs
were struck, of which John Dannreuther estimates 150 to 225 pieces
survive. Although they were minted from the same dies as the
regular-issue coinage, there is absolutely no mistaking the proof
origin of this high-end Premium Gem with Deep Cameo contrast, which
is both Plus-designated and CAC-approved. Yellow-gold surfaces
feature watery, reflective fields around thickly frosted devices.
Eye appeal is exquisite. The missing letters in LIBERTY and
polished feathers on the headdress are typical. Population: 5 in 66
(3 in 66+) Deep Cameo, 2 finer. CAC: 5 in 66, 0 finer
(5/21).(Registry values: P1)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25EY, PCGS# 97638, Greysheet# 8204)
