Description
Fabulous PR67 NGC 1878 Twenty Cent Piece, Tied for the Finest Known
1878 20C PR67 NGC. This popular and scarce proof-only issue was minted only to the tune of 600 pieces, and was the final year of this ephemeral denomination. This magnificent piece is remarkably free of any significant signs of handling or any contact marks, and is blanketed on both sides by rich steel-gray toning that is enhanced by iridescent splashes of violet and russet. NGC has thus far (9/04) graded only one other example at this lofty grade level (with none finer), and PCGS has yet to award a single coin with the MS67 grade. This coin is ideal for the finest of type sets, and would make a lovely addition to even the most advanced "cabinet".(#5306) (Registry values: N7079)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 27H5, PCGS# 5306, GSID# 5051)
