Description
1898 Dollar, PR67 Cameo
Extraordinary Quality
1898 $1 PR67 Cameo NGC. This is an elegant Superb Gem Cameo
specimen of one of the best-produced silver proof issues of the
19th century. After many trials and misguided attempts to improve
proof quality, the Mint finally got things right in both 1897 and
1898. An amazing percentage of 1898 proofs are Cameos or Deep
Cameos, and virtually all examples display razor-sharp strikes.This 1898 example offers generous contrast on both sides, carefully preserved under a sheer veil of translucent, golden-gray patina. The mirrors are uniformly exceptional, with a liquid-like quality. The portrait reveals some wispy die polish lines, yet the frosted devices more than compensate and showcase how even a toned coin can approach the epitome of cameo contrast. A single, tiny spot of bluish-gray patina hallmarks this Superb Gem, located at the peripheral reverse near OF.
