Description
Intriguing 1895 Dollar, Details of PR30
1895 $1 --Repaired, Cleaned--ANACS Genuine. Proof. In our opinion, this piece has the details of PR30 but has been cleaned and possibly repaired. We say "possibly" because whether this coin has been repaired is up for debate; certainly there are no overt repairs present. The one area that induced ANACS to label the coin as "repaired," a small section of the cheek with several contact marks, might have been lightly smoothed, but at the same time it simply could have been cleaned more extensively than the rest of the coin.Both sides show considerable wear across the high points and scattered contact marks. Though cleaned in the past, it has begun to retone with olive-tan and violet elements at the margins. The overall eye appeal is better than the cautions listed by ANACS might suggest. Despite its past troubles, this remains a highly desirable coin, one of just 880 pieces struck for an issue available only in proof format, and it is sure to have an honored place in whatever cabinet eventually holds it. Housed in a small-format ANACS holder.(Registry values: N1)
