- Eagerly Sought Gem Proof 1875 Trade Dollar
1875 Trade Dollar. Type I/II. Proof-65 Cameo (PCGS). CAC.
A delightful specimen that exhibits captivating olive-orange and silver-mauve patina to surfaces that also reveal vivid undertones when observed at direct lighting angles. The finish is nicely cameoed with reflective fields supporting sharply impressed, frosty motifs. Expertly preserved with abundant eye appeal, this is a lovely coin in all regards that is worthy of the strongest bids.
The 1875 is the third issue in the Proof trade dollar series of 1873 to 1883, and it has a mintage of 700 pieces. The delivery comprised coins of both the Type I/I and Type I/II hub combinations; the latter is by far the more plentiful. The easiest way to identify the Type II reverse hub is by the lack of a berry on the olive branch directly below the eagle's left talon. Although often overshadowed by their Proof-only counterparts of 1878 to 1883, the early Proof trade dollars such as the 1873, 1874 and 1875 are actually scarcer in today's market, and also more challenging to locate in grades above Proof-64, as here. The Proof 1875 is even more desirable due to its association by date and issuing mint with the low mintage circulation strike 1875, an issue with just 218,200 pieces produced. Exceptionally well preserved with outstanding visual appeal, this lovely Gem Cameo Proof would serve as a highlight in any advanced collection.
