Gem Cameo Proof 1881 Trade Dollar

1881 T$1 PR66 Cameo PCGS. Our activity in the auction business affords us the opportunity to see so many coins that the average collector or dealer couldn't possibly examine. Quite often, we become immune to rarity and beauty; one of the "hazards" of the trade. Every now and then, however, a coin comes along that is so lovely we find it captivating. This is one of those coins. Part of a proof-only issue with a mintage of just 960 coins, few have survived in such a high technical grade. For a fully brilliant Cameo Proof, we would go so far as to suggest that none have survived with so much eye appeal. The term "black and white" fully applies to this Premium Gem. The devices are highly lustrous, the fields are deeply mirrored, and there is no evidence of any toning. Population: 7 in 66, 1 finer (9/04).(#87061) (Registry values: N4719)
