- Exquisite Ultra Gem Proof 1892 Morgan Dollar
1892 Morgan Silver Dollar. Proof-68 (PCGS). CAC.
Even a quick glance confirms that this is the finest Proof 1892 Morgan silver dollar that we have offered in recent decades. it is a beautiful Ultra Gem with both sides bathed in richly original toning of blended rose, olive-gold and powder blue. The toning is iridescent allowing full appreciation of a well mirrored finish, particularly in the fields. The devices exhibit more of a softly frosted texture, and are fully struck down to the last hair curl over Liberty's ear and feather on the eagle's breast. This virtually pristine Proof Morgan dollar will please even the most discerning collector.
At 1,245, the Proof mintage for the 1892 one of the highest in the Morgan dollar series, achieved because the Mint anticipated heightened demand for silver Proof sets due to the introduction of the new Barber dime, quarter and half dollar. Q. David Bowers (1993) believes that the Mint disposed of several hundred undistributed examples by releasing them into circulation at face value. Even so, this issue is readily obtainable, but collectors seeking to do better than the typically encountered specimen will require patience and persistence to secure a fully struck, expertly preserved coin such as that offered here. Outstanding!
