1882 Gold Dollar, PR66 Deep Cameo
Eye-Catching Contrast, Few are Finer

1882 G$1 PR66 Deep Cameo PCGS. CAC. JD-1, R.5. The 1882 gold dollar is known for its scarcity in proof format. A 125-piece proof mintage includes two varieties featuring subtly different date placements. This JD-1 variety is recognizable by its partially filled second "8" in the well-centered date, set slightly farther right than the JD-2 variant. Only 50 to 65 pieces survive across both varieties, with the JD-1 proofs considerably more available than the rare JD-2 die pair. This is a highly attractive Gem Deep Cameo example, distinguished by its vibrant orange-gold surfaces, mirrored fields, and sharply contrasting frosty devices. Visually impressive proof surfaces exhibit bold contrast, with blatant gold-on-black effect visible from multiple viewing angles. Few 1882 proofs surpass this example in terms of quality and even receive the coveted CAC endorsement seen here. Population: 11 in 66 (3 in 66+) Deep Cameo, 3 finer. CAC: 4 in 66, 1 finer (3/24).(Registry values: P2)
