Description
1878 Proof-Only Trade Dollar, PR66
Attractively Toned
1878 T$1 PR66 NGC. This first of the proof-only Trade
dollars saw a limited output of 900 pieces. This low mintage has
made the 1878 a popular coin for generations of collectors. It is
generally found in PR63-64 condition, but its availability drops
off sharply above PR64. At the PR66 level, NGC has only certified
14 pieces with four finer (7/11). The fields on this piece are
deeply mirrored, as one would expect. The obverse approaches
brilliance in the center, surrounded by thin rings of gold and blue
at the margin. The reverse is mostly reddish-gold with blue at the
periphery. Census: 14 in 66, 4 finer (7/11).(Registry values: N4719)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 27YP, PCGS# 7058, Greysheet# 7404)
Weight: 27.22 grams
