- Lot Description
- 1882 Morgan Silver Dollar. Proof-66 Cameo (NGC). Impressive quality and eye appeal for an early Morgan dollar in proof. The surfaces have good contrast between the fields and devices. Delicate gold toning near the rims, otherwise bright white, with blinding snow white centers. The depth of the strike is notable on the eagle's breast feathers and all of Liberty's curls. Mintage of 1,101 in proof, and this is one of a small percentage that show the desirable cameo contrast, and of course the survivors really tail off the higher the grade. At the gem level this rarity will certainly please any numismatist.
