Description

Deeply but Attractively Toned 1879 Trade Dollar

1879 T$1 PR64 PCGS. From 1879 to 1885, only proof Trade Dollar strikings were made by the mint in Philadelphia. These were not exported as were the earlier business strikes, and many subsequently were mishandled or lost. This very interesting coin is deeply toned in steel-gray shades with underlying accents of rose, crimson, and golden color. The surfaces are unusually attractive as the coin is rotated under a light source.(#7059) (Registry values: N2998)
