Description

1912 Matte PR66 Indian Five Dollar
Rich Color and Lovely, Sparkling Surfaces

1912 $5 PR66 NGC. The 1912 half eagle proofs, even though struck with a matte surfaces, normally show lighter-colored surfaces than the 1908- and 1911-dated issues that precede them. Seldom are examples finer than the present Premium Gem available. The surfaces on this piece are deep mustard-gold, showing the typical crisply detailed strike and fine-grained texture that creates a subtle sparkle. A thin (almost undetectable) hairline runs down from the D is the grade-determining factor, although there are several light luster grazes present on each side. Census: 13 in 66, 19 finer (7/12).(Registry values: N7079)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 28E6, PCGS# 8543, Greysheet# 9336)

Weight: 8.36 grams
