Description
1883 Gold Dollar, PR63 Cameo
Deeply Reflective Orange-Gold Surfaces
1883 G$1 PR63 Cameo PCGS. The 1883 proof gold dollar had a
mintage of 207 proofs, but probably no more than 70 or so remain
today. No firm diagnostics are known for this issue; as Breen
states "business strikes (usually prooflike UNC.) and proofs both
coming with traces of repunching and filling in 8's." That
statement is suggestive that perhaps both proofs and business
strikes were struck from the same dies. This piece displays deep,
watery fields and there is a significant amount of orange-peel
texture (not seen on business strikes). A few field marks are
scattered over each side, as well as a few dark spots over the E in
STATES and in the central portion of both the obverse and
reverse.Ex: Houston Signature (Heritage, 12/2009), lot 1509.
