Phenomenal Strike and Condition Proof 1873 Trade Dollar 1873 Trade Dollar. Proof-65 Cameo (PCGS). A standout example of this first year Proof Trade dollar issue. The surfaces are moderately and attractively toned, and we note particularly vivid undertones when observed with the aid of direct lighting. The devices are blanketed in satiny luster which contrasts the deep reflectivity in the fields. Among the finest certified for the date, and sure to sell for a strong premium. The 1873 is the premier Proof in the Trade dollar series. Researcher Harry X Boosel uncovered internal Mint records that showed an output of 865 pieces, though 600 pieces is the generally accepted figure which is listed in the Guide Book(75th Edition, 2022). In any case, the date in Proof is considerably rarer than many of its compatriots of the era, especially the Proof-only issues of 1878 to 1883. Since most are found in grades of Proof-63 and lower, and seldom with any Cameo contrast, this PCGS Proof-65 Cameo specimen is a truly significant offering. Provenance: From the Collection of James Allaire Millholland, 1842-1911. PCGS Population: 3; with a single Proof-67 Cameo finer in this category.
