Gem Proof 1887 Gold Dollar

1887 G$1 PR65 PCGS. A closed reverse wreath and the centering of the 7 in the date below the A in DOLLAR not only attributes this coin as a proof, but distinguishes it from deceptive prooflike business strikes. Rich yellow-gold in appearance, both sides are uniformly reflective with razor sharp striking definition throughout. There are no disturbing hairlines or contact marks, but a few scattered black flecks are seen on the obverse. The Mint produced 1,034 proof Gold Dollars in 1887, and the approximately 175 survivors are among the most plentiful specimen strikings of the type in today's market. Population: 16 in 65, 14 finer (9/04).(#7637) (Registry values: P1)
