Description
1877 Twenty Cent Piece, PR65
Rare Ultra Cameo Example
1877 20C PR65 Ultra Cameo NGC. The short-lived twenty cent
denomination was never popular with the general public because the
coins were often confused with the long-established Seated Liberty
quarters, which they closely resembled in size and obverse design.
No business-strike examples were produced in 1877, but the
Philadelphia Mint struck 510 examples in proof format to satisfy
collector demand. The issue is the acknowledged key to the series
today and examples with Ultra Cameo surfaces are seldom
encountered.The present coin is a delightful Gem with well-detailed, richly frosted design elements that contrast boldly with the deeply reflective fields. Highlights of cerulean-blue and golden-tan toning visit the well-preserved surfaces. Overall eye appeal is terrific. Census: 1 in 65 Ultra Cameo, 2 finer (7/19).(Registry values: P1)
