Lot Description

Frosty devices and deeply mirrored fields bask in the glory of a fully brilliant appearance. A sharply struck and delightfully attractive premium Gem in all regards. One of 792 Proofs of the date produced, a figure that is down nearly 500 specimens from the preceding year's Proof mintage; by the second year of the series, 1893, the novelty had evidently worn off for the new Barber issues. Aesthetically appealing and physically approaching perfection.<p>
