1877 T$1 MS (PCGS#7044)

June 2018 Baltimore U.S. Coins Auction

详细说明: 1877 Trade Dollar. MS-63 (PCGS). CAC--Gold Label. OGH. This is a simply outstanding example that has the quality and eye appeal to suggest a near-Gem grade. Richly toned on both sides, there are reddish-apricot and powder blue peripheral highlights around pale gold and iridescent silver centers. The strike is sharp over most design elements and there is full satiny mint luster. This issue's mintage of 3,039,200 circulation strikes conceals the scarcity of Mint State examples in numismatic circles. While many of the coins struck during the first half of the year (654,000 pieces) were exported, most of the remaining pieces were placed into domestic circulation. Comparatively few were set aside at the time, and even in lower Uncirculated grades through MS-64 the 1877 is scarce by trade dollar standards while Gems are rare. As one of the nicest Choice examples that we have ever offered, this premium quality MS-63 represents a significant find for the astute bidder. Provenance: From the Beasley Collection. PCGS# 7044.
