Description
Gem Proof 1872 Seated Dollar
Richly Toned
1872 $1 PR65 PCGS Secure. A rich mixture of colors covers
each side of this Gem proof, with the hues centered on two points
in the spectrum, amber and blue-green, and branching out into
variations of each. Both sides have strong mirrors through the
patina, and where the toning is lightest over the devices,
frostiness is evident, hinting at what must have been considerable
contrast once. Pleasingly detailed and marvelously appealing for
this issue of 950 proofs, the second-to-last in the Seated dollar
series before it was abolished in the general coinage reform that
would later be known as the "Crime of '73." Population: 17 in 65, 1
