1879 G$1 PR64 Cameo NGC. Unlike the proof Gold Dollars from the 1880s, the 1879 is a very rare issue. Of the 30 proofs struck, it is estimated that today only 15-18 pieces survive in all grades. This is a deeply mirrored piece that shows rich reddish-orange color over both sides and significant contrast between the fields and devices. A few small contact marks are located in the fields on each side, but there is only one surface flaw that might be used as a future pedigree identifier: a short planchet flaw just to the right of the 9 in the date.
From the Genaitis Collection of 1879 Coinage. (PCGS# 87629)
