Description

1889-S $1 MS65 Deep Mirror Prooflike PCGS. Beautifully detailed and boldly impressed, a Gem that offers even more eye appeal than its grade might bring to mind. This sharp example offers solid contrast, a common feature for the Prooflike and Deep Mirror Prooflike survivors from this issue. Minimally toned with moderately frosted devices and fathomless silver-white fields. Despite its mintage of under a million pieces, the 1889-S does not enjoy a strong reputation as a rarity in an absolute sense, though series enthusiasts are aware of how conditionally challenging it can be. Population: 2 in 65 Deep Mirror Prooflike, 2 finer (6/08).
