1880. PCGS graded Proof 67 Cameo. CAC Approved. An impressive Gem Cameo Proof. The fully brilliant devices and fields are in bold contrast to each other, and this snow-white appearance serves to highlight the cameo effect. A needle-sharp strike is displayed overall including the often-weak stars and Liberty's head. While 1,987 examples of this proof-only date were struck -- the largest proof mintage of the design type by a substantial margin -- relatively few remaining examples can match the quality offered here. No marks can be discerned by the naked eye, and low magnification reveals much the same scenario, revealing a coin that is ever so close to physical and aesthetic perfection. This example is certain to elicit strong bidding activity when it crosses the auction block. Pop 9; none finer at PCGS. (PCGS # 87060) . Estimated Value $30,000 - 32,000. Categories: Trade Dollars
