Description
Deeply Toned Premium Gem Proof
1878 Trade Dollar, Proof-Only Issue
From the First Year of the Morgan Dollars
1878 T$1 PR66 NGC. The 1878 Philadelphia Trade dollar is a
proof-only issue, although Carson City and San Francisco made
business strikes in this, the first year of the Morgan dollar. The
Bland-Allison Act effectively ended the Trade dollar series,
although proofs were coined for a few more years. Impeccable,
mark-free surfaces are fully struck throughout on this Premium Gem
proof. Under a lamp, the obverse resolves into deep purple and blue
hues, with a touch of red around Liberty's outstretched arm. On the
reverse, rose-pink prevails. Census: 5 in 66, 1 in 67, the only
specimen certified numerically finer in any contrast level
(5/11).(Registry values: N4719)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 27YP, PCGS# 7058, Greysheet# 7404)
