Description
Glittering PR65 Cameo 1887 Gold Dollar
1887 G$1 PR65 Cameo NGC. CAC. In a rare nod to irony, the authors of the Encyclopedia of U.S. Gold Coinage point out the relative mintages of the proof 1887 gold dollar and its silver Morgan dollar counterpart, noting production of 1,043 specimens for the former and just 710 pieces for the latter. Of course, a Gem Cameo survivor of either type would be a prize today. This yellow-gold example is one such coin of the more diminutive variety, strongly mirrored with a few light planchet flakes in the fields surrounding well-defined and moderately frosted devices. Census: 10 in 65 Cameo, 14 finer (11/10).From The Henry Miller Collection.(Registry values: P1)
