Description
1878 Trade Dollar, PR66
Subtle Field-Device Contrast
1878 T$1 PR66 PCGS. CAC. Business-strike coinage of Trade
dollars was suspended at the Philadelphia Mint in 1878, but 900
proof examples were struck to satisfy collector demand. The issue
enjoys a fairly high survival rate, but most examples seen are in
the PR60 to PR63 range. The 1878 is elusive in PR66 condition, and
finer grades are prohibitively rare. This Premium Gem proof boasts
spectacular surfaces and preservation complementing sharp design
elements and deeply mirrored fields under vivid shades of
lavender-gray, emerald-green, and cobalt-blue toning. The eye
appeal is outstanding. Population: 8 in 66, 1 finer (10/15).Ex: Eugene H. Gardner Collection, Part III (Heritage, 5/2015), lot 98593.(Registry values: N4719)
