Splendid 1882 Trade Dollar, PR66 Deep Cameo

1882 T$1 PR66 Deep Cameo PCGS. The Philadelphia Mint produced no more business strike Trade dollars after 1877, but it struck proofs annually through 1883. The very rare 1884 and 1885 proofs were unknown to the collector community for many years after their manufacture. The 1878 to 1883 proofs were apparently popular with contemporary collectors, given their relatively high mintages. For example, 1,987 proofs were struck in 1880, substantially more than the 1,355 proof Morgan dollars. But by 1882, mintages were statistically equal--1,100 proof Morgans compared with 1,097 Trade dollars. The present specimen has splendid orange-gold margins and brilliant fields. Icy-white devices that have been boldly struck provide further eye appeal. Population: 4 in 66 Deep Cameo, 0 finer (12/07).(Registry values: P1)
