Description
1881 Trade Dollar, PR65
Attractively Toned Example
1881 T$1 PR65 NGC. The proof mintage of 960 Trade dollars in
1881 was one of just three proof-only dates that had mintages below
1,000 pieces (of course we are not including the 1884 or 1885 in
this discussion). Examples are usually frequently seen in the
market place, even in Gem grades, but few have the eye appeal of
this example, created through an incredible display of iridescent
toning over fully mirrored fields. The strike is sharp, and the
devices have frosty luster that stands out from the mirrors.Ex: FUN Signature (Heritage, 1/2009), lot 4407.
