Lot Description

Delightful Gem Cameo Proof 1882 Trade Dollar 1882 Trade Dollar. Proof-65 Cameo (PCGS). A brilliant and beautiful example of this perennially popular type issue in the Proof trade dollar series. Heavily frosted with virtually full striking detail, the design elements appear to float atop deep pools of reflectivity in the fields. Delicate surfaces are exceptionally well preserved with a silky smooth appearance that borders on pristine. Eagerly sought for both specimen type and date purposes, the 1882 trade dollar is a Proof-only issue with 1,097 pieces produced. Most examples are found in grades of Proof-64 and lower due to hairlines and other signs of (mis)handling. This condition rarity Gem represents a fleeting bidding opportunity for discerning numismatists. Provenance: From the Castle Pines Collection. PCGS Population: 13; 15 finer in this category (Proof-67 Cameo finest). PCGS# 87062. NGC ID: 27YU. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
