Not Sold Description
Distinctive MS62 Prooflike 1893 Dollar
1893 $1 MS62 Prooflike NGC. Among the 378,000 1893 Morgan dollars issued by Philadelphia, few Prooflike examples survive; Q. David Bowers notes in A Guide Book of Morgan Silver Dollars that "Prooflike coins are elusive and have little contrast." This unworn survivor exhibits the sharp central detail that the best examples display, and the lightly abraded fields, though flashy, also show a strong degree of mirror finish. Subtle gold-gray tints add color to the otherwise untoned surfaces. At the MS62 level, Prooflikes cease to be "elusive" and are major condition rarities instead. Census: 1 in 62 Prooflike, 1 finer (6/08).(Registry values: P7, N991)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 255R, PCGS# 7221, GSID# 7577)
