FROM THE BIGMO CIVIL WAR COLLECTION This is a the SOLE FINEST GRADED 1864 Proof Seated dollar in the Cameo designation, and we have had the pleasure of offering it once before, in our January 2017 Regency Auction, where it was described as: "The SOLE FINEST PCGS CAMEO graded. Visually stunning! This nearly SUPERB PR Seated dollar will be a highlight of any collection that it graces. Deep watery mirrors shine in the light and contrast brilliantly against the exceptionally well struck frosty devices. A dusting of pale gold and champagne-apricot tone can be seen particularly at the rims. All the details of Ms. Liberty and her drapery are fully and crisply defined and the devices stand out in full 3-D relief. Likewise the eagle is fully struck, each minute detail well delineated and the die polishing was so bold, the space in the shield lines are just as reflective as the rest of the fields! Using a strong glass, a few tiny die lines are noted on the reverse and a tiny lint mark can be seen with effort and serve as pedigree markers." Only 470 Proof dollars were struck during this bloody Civil War year. PCGS 1, NGC 2, CAC 1. In our auction, it realized a world record price of $47,000, and until that time, no PCGS-graded Cameo Proof had sold in auction finer than PR65. The current Collectors Universe value listed at $45,000. This is a Premium Quality GEM, with approaches on the SUPERB category. If you are working on a set of Civil War proofs, this is the FINEST PCGS CAM 1864 dollar, and should be a great highlight to your set. Cert. Number 82129154 PCGS # 87007
