Description

1879-O $1 MS65 Deep Mirror Prooflike NGC. This boldly impressed Gem has astonishing reflectivity for the issue, which is noted by Bowers, among others, as scarce in Prooflike and "scarcer yet" with Deep Mirror Prooflike surfaces. The present piece shows subtle gold-orange tints close to the margins, while much of the rest of each side is virtually untoned. The devices exhibit substantially above-average definition and ample frost. A great survivor, housed in a prior-generation NGC holder. NGC has graded just four coins in MS65 Deep Mirror Prooflike and none finer (6/08).
