1865 $1, CAM PR (PCGS#87008)

August 2021 ANA U.S. Coins Auction

Losbeschreibung: 1865 Liberty Seated Silver Dollar. Proof-63 Cameo (NGC). Pale golden-silver iridescence gives way to splashes of bolder steely-rose at the lower obverse and, especially, lower right reverse borders. Fully struck and satiny, the design elements contrast markedly with deeply mirrored fields. The mintage of Proof 1865 silver dollars amounted to 500 pieces, all of which were distributed as part of the year's silver Proof sets. A fair number of these coins have survived, although the quality of individual specimens is usually below average due to hairlines and other evidence of careless handling. With Mint State 1865 circulation strike silver dollars elusive, well preserved and attractive Proofs such as the Cameo example offered here are always in demand. PCGS# 87008. NGC ID: 252K.
