Description

1882 G$1 PR64 Cameo NGC. CAC. While the 1882 proof gold dollar enjoys a mintage of 125 pieces, it is appreciably elusive with the fine Cameo contrast demonstrated on the present piece. Intense lemon-yellow mirrors turn butter-yellow with an undercurrent of green near the mirrors. Both sides offer great reflectivity and light texture in the fields, and while the frost over the devices is thicker on the sharply struck wreath, the obverse with its portrait offers plenty of contrast. Only a few tiny disturbances in the fields preclude an even finer designation. A memorable specimen.
