Exceptional Superb Proof 1882 Morgan S$1 1882 Morgan Silver Dollar. Proof-67+ (PCGS). Virtually pristine surfaces offer some of the most varied and most attractive toning that we have ever encountered on a Proof Morgan dollar of this date. Mottled olive-russet, bronze, steel-blue and sandy-gray are seen both sides. As the surfaces dip into a light, however, one is treated to a veritable explosion of underlying colors that are particularly vivid and varied on the obverse. The fields are reflective and support fully impressed devices, and some cameo finish is discernible with patience. Free of even the most trivial blemishes, this dazzling coin is equally well suited for high quality Proof type and date purposes. The reported mintage for this early Proof issue in the Morgan dollar series is 1,100 pieces, although Q. David Bowers (Silver Dollars & Trade Dollars of the United States: A Complete Encyclopedia, 1993) suggests that the actual total might be somewhat higher. In any event, this is a readily obtainable Proof Morgan dollar. What sets the present specimen apart, however, are the superior level of surface preservation and the outstanding eye appeal. With the typical survivor grading no finer than Proof-64, this Superb Gem represents a significant bidding opportunity for quality conscious collectors. Provenance: From the Collection of James Allaire Millholland, 1842-1911. PCGS Population: 1; 6 finer in thus category (all Proof-68).
