June 2018 Pre-Long Beach Auction #104 U.S. Coins

详细说明: Lot 1895 1868. PCGS graded Proof 64 Cameo PQ. CAC.Well struck and fully untoned. Only 25 struck in proof and this is one of the finest examples. First off the surfaces are nearly of gem qualiity, second the fields and devices show the desirable Cameo contrast seen only on a couple of surviving proofs of this date. The contrast adds to the appeal, and this makes for a dramtic coin to study. Mintages at the time were tiny reflecting the demand, simply put not many people in Amerrica could afford to buy and keep these early numismatic treasures. Only the richest folks were able to buy these, and not many did. Today these are historic relics from our history and of considerable importance. Pop 2; 1 in 65CAM.(PCGS # 87894) Estimate Value $20,000 - 22,000
