Description
1881 $1 PR67 Cameo NGC. One of only 984 proofs struck this year. There were two sets of dies made but all known examples are from a single obverse (VAM-8) mated to two reverses. This example is the slightly more common variety with a wavy die scratch across the eagle's right leg.
The coin exhibits fully reflective fields in stark contrast to the frosty cameo devices. Proof Morgans are rarely found in such superb condition and Bowers estimates only 90 examples above PR65 for 1881. The bright, white fields are predictably free of contact marks. There are small areas of russet toning between Liberty's hair and the stars on the obverse and below the wreath on the reverse. Near-perfect surfaces, bright color, and outstanding contrast make this coin a collector's dream. Census: 11 in 67, 8 finer (7/08).(Registry values: N4719) (#87316)
