Description

1883 $1 MS66 Deep Mirror Prooflike PCGS. While flashiness is a common asset for 1883 Morgan dollars, two-sided prooflikes are elusive. As noted by Q. David Bowers in his Guide Book to Morgan Silver Dollars, "Some DMPL coins exist with excellent cameo contrast and are rare ..." Also rare is the opportunity to own such a piece in so fine a grade, with just seven MS66 Deep Mirror Prooflike pieces known to PCGS and none finer (6/08). Delicate champagne tints on the obverse are more broadly spread on the reverse. Strongly contrasted and immensely reflective nonetheless with excellent preservation and eye appeal.
