Description
Gorgeous MS67 Deep Mirror Prooflike 1899-O Dollar
1899-O $1 MS67 Deep Mirror Prooflike PCGS. This O-mint issue achieved wide distribution following the Treasury releases of the early 1960s, and many examples that emerged that that time were noted for their aesthetic appeal. Q. David Bowers, in his A Guide Book of Morgan Silver Dollars, notes that "The usual 1899-O is sparkling and beautiful to behold." He also writes that Deep Mirror Prooflikes can be of "stunning beauty," which is the least that can be said for this spectacular Superb Gem. It is sharply struck, powerfully mirrored, and strongly contrasted through occasional whispers of silver-gray patina. Magnificent eye appeal. Population: 2 in 67 Deep Mirror Prooflike, 0 finer (6/08).From the "A Gift of Undeserved Favor" Collection.(Registry values: P1, N4719)
