Description
1885 Gold Dollar, PR65 Cameo
Bold Contrast, Sharp and Attractive
1885 G$1 PR65 Cameo PCGS. JD-2, R.5. This sparkling 1885 Gem
Cameo comes from a substantial proof mintage of 1,105 pieces,
although most of the mintage went unsold and perhaps as few as 200
pieces were actually distributed to collectors. The Bowers
reference estimates 140 to 180 pieces survive. Few of those can
match the bold cameo contrast of this mirrored, medium-gold
example. Heavy "Longacre doubling" on the legend corresponds to the
John W. Dannreuther variety. A circular lint mark below T in UNITED
and a few light die polish lines are Mint-related, and the sole
visible interruptions of the glassy fields. The frosted devices are
sharply struck on both sides, and the reverse die is rotated
counterclockwise. Population: 4 in 65 Cameo, 4 finer
(3/19).(Registry values: P1)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25EV, PCGS# 87635, Greysheet# 8194)
Weight: 1.70 grams
Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
