1866 $1 Motto PR64+ 认证号43431877, PCGS号7014

WOW! This coin isn’t just a +. Its a 64.9++!!!! Deep mirrors beam vividly from all over. The mirrors are exceedingly clean and offer strong clarity. Even if you use a strong glass, you can’t find any negatives. When you twirl the coin, the mirrors look like a freshly made sheet of glass. There is NO haze. Both sides enjoy a serious kiss of color from Mother Nature. Electric blue rims open into deep tangerine/violet/burnt orange centers. Miss Liberty and the details stand out with thick frost and full strikes. The eye appeal is awesome! ONLY 725 minted. PCGS 65, NGC 64, CAC 10. PCGS has graded only 2 in PR64+. Neither has been sold via auction. All we can say is, PCGS robbed this coin (in our opinion-no promises tho)! If you seek a gorgeous mouth watering vividly toned Seated Dollar, here ya go! Legend CAC

According to official records, the Mint produced 725 Proof Silver Dollars in 1866.  Most of the original mintage still survives, usually in PR63 and PR64.  Approximately one-fourth of the certified Proofs are Cameos, and less than ten percent are Deep Cameos.  The finest example is a single, spectacular PCGS PR69CAM.

According to Breen and Bowers, three die pairs were used to strike these Proofs, which is a surprisingly large number of different die pairs for such a low mintage.  In fact, this may not be correct, as one of the die pairs was also used to strike copper versions (Judd-541) for sale to collectors.  Both Bowers and Breen claim that this die pair is the most common of the year.  However, attributing numerous examples indicates that the opposite is true.  It may also be true that no silver examples exist from this die pair, despite Breen's assertions to the contrary.  If only copper versions were made, then only two die pairs were used to strike the silver Proofs.  Research is ongoing.
