Description

Boldly Contrasted 1883 Eagle, PR64 Cameo

1883 $10 PR64 Cameo NGC. The 1883 ten dollar proof has an identical mintage to its 1881 and 1882 counterparts at just 40 specimens, though Garrett and Guth note that the issue is "slightly more common" than those predecessors. It is plausible that the 1883 sold out or nearly so, as proof production got a slight bump for the next year. In any event, few coins have survived in such impressive condition as this PR64 Cameo specimen, boldly contrasted between yellow mirrors and sharply struck, frosted devices. A touch of cloudiness is noted at the lower left obverse, and the reverse has a couple of small copper spots at the bottom rim. Census: 6 in 64 Cameo, 1 finer (8/11).(Registry values: P3)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 28FM, PCGS# 88823, Greysheet# 9667)

Weight: 16.72 grams
