- High-Grade 1883 Hawaii Silver Dollar with Glorious Toning
1883 Hawaii Dollar. Medcalf-Russell 2CS-5. MS-64 (NGC).
Toned on the obverse and reverse with classic gunmetal-blue around the rims with the centers bathed in lilac-gray with flashes of luster peeking through. The strike is sharp throughout and the surfaces show little more than trivial scuffs and bagmarks. One of the finer examples of this issue and with such elegant toning a coin that would be hard not to enjoy. This denomination does not usually come well preserved, and demand is always strong when a near Gem like this piece crosses the market. These coins were struck at the San Francisco Mint and designed by Charles E. Barber with considerable input by Claus Spreckels, the sugar baron of the Pacific. Many circulated in the Hawaiian Islands for years, and certainly not many were saved.
PCGS# 10995.
NGC Census: 15; 18 finer (MS-68 finest).
