- Ready To Retire Collection. An absolutely stunning, crystal-bright surface practically clangs with white brilliance, throwing off shimmering flashes of pure white as lighting bounces off of either side. To say that this is a "prooflike" coin is almost a vast understatement, given the amazing contrast that truly borders upon sublime. If not for some noticeable abrading of the field beneath Liberty's chin, we might be looking at "wonder coin" for 1883-S, and NGC has perfectly called the numeric grade at MS-62 PL to take into account the distraction. A visually arresting piece, to be sure.
