Description

Rare Proof 1857 Trime

1857 PR 64. The exact mintage of proofs is not known, but it is estimated that perhaps 75 pieces were initially struck, and Breen suggests maybe 18 to 20 are now extant. Whatever the case, the 1857 is a very elusive proof Type Two date, and one we have not offered for years. Boldly defined with nicely mirrored fields, some die polish marks are seen, particularly on the obverse. Both sides are draped in even, antique-gold patina. A very choice example.
