Description
Gem Proof Ultra Cameo 1881 Gold Dollar
Strong Contrast, Attractive Color
1881 G$1 PR65 Ultra Cameo NGC. From a mintage of just 87
pieces, the 1881 proof gold dollar is a challenging date in Gem
condition, and examples with Ultra Cameo contrast are quite rare.
The accepted production total of 87 pieces was discovered through
the research of Walter Breen, coming from the chief coiner's
records. Earlier reports indicate a smaller number of proofs were
struck, and the 1966 Guide Book gives a total of just 40
pieces. The present coin is a deeply mirrored, sharply detailed
specimen, with attractive greenish-gold surfaces. Eye appeal is
exceptional. Census: 1 in 65 Ultra Cameo, 5 finer (11/10).From The Henry Miller Collection.(Registry values: P3)
Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25ER, PCGS# 97631, Greysheet# 8183)
Weight: 1.70 grams
