Important 1889 Morgan Dollar, PR67 Cameo

1889 $1 PR67 Cameo NGC. An absolutely gorgeous Superb Gem Cameo proof, this 1887 is entirely brilliant with no evidence of toning on either side. The mirrored fields show almost unlimited depth, with sharply detailed design features at a time when many proof Morgans were weakly struck. Only a trace of striking weakness is evident over Liberty's ear. All other obverse and reverse details are bold.
The Philadelphia Mint produced 811 proof 1889 Morgan dollars, and few of those had strong contrast. The combined NGC and PCGS population reports show a total of 296 proofs, 70 Cameo proofs, and one Deep Cameo proof. Based on those figures, only about one of every five proof 1889 Morgan dollars were minted with cameo contrast. Census: 9 in 67 Cameo, 1 finer (6/10).(Registry values: N4719)
