Colorful PR66 1878 Twenty Cent Piece

1878 20C PR66 PCGS Secure. Deep dappled navy-blue and plum-mauve patina invigorates the obverse, while the reverse has an orange-gold periphery and an apple-green center. The strike is razor-sharp, and the mirrored fields lack any indication of hairlines or contact marks. The 1878 is a proof-only date limited to just 600 pieces. Since the twenty cent denomination was readily confused with the similar in diameter quarter dollar, the series was struck for just four years, which limits availability of the proof type, especially in the present immaculate quality. Population: 12 in 66, 0 finer (6/10).(Registry values: N4719)
