Set Registry Quality Proof 1870 Silver Dollar 1870 Liberty Seated Silver Dollar. Proof-65 Deep Cameo (PCGS). This is an outstanding Deep Cameo Proof 1870 silver dollar, attractive and conditionally rare for both the type and issue. Minimally toned in iridescent gold, direct lighting angles reveal a brilliant coin. The centers are essentially so, in fact, and allow ready appreciation of sharp field to device contrast. It is difficult for us to imagine a more desirable Proof Liberty Seated dollar of the Motto design type. With 1,000 coins struck the 1870 has the highest mintage among Proof silver dollars since 1861. Even so, this issue is among the scarcer in the Motto type, and it is likely that a portion of the mintage remained unsold and were melted or placed into circulation. The delicate reflective fields and satiny devices of the present Gem are exceptionally smooth, and it is one of the finest Proof 1870 silver dollars available to today's collectors. Eagerly awaiting inclusion in another high ranked collection on the PCGS Set Registry. Provenance: From the George Schwenk Collection. Earlier from Heritage's sale of the Tall Grass Prairie Collection, January 2020 FUN Signature Auction, lot 4244. PCGS Population: 3; 2 finer in this category (both Proof-66 Deep Cameo). PCGS# 97018.
