1886 G$1 PR (PCGS#7636)

The January 2013 Americana Sale

详细说明: 1886 Gold Dollar. Proof-67 (PCGS). As one of the higher mintage issues in the proof gold dollar series, the late date 1886 is an excellent candidate for inclusion in a specimen type set. Yet while a fair number of examples cross the auction block in any given year of numismatic activity, few survivors grade any finer than Proof-64 or, at best, Proof-65. Proof-66s are usually obtainable only with patience, and it is may be many years before this top of the <em>Population Report </em> Superb Gem in PCGS Proof-67 is once again made available for purchase. The single finest proof 1886 gold dollar known to this certification service, this delightful specimen exhibits dominant honey-rose color that yields to a lighter, pale-gold hue over the central devices. Semi reflective fields are most vibrant when observed with the aid of a strong light, at which angles they offer strong contrast to nearly matte like devices. There are no outwardly distracting blemishes, as befits the assigned grade, and the coin makes a lovely impression on the eye.
