1873 Very Choice Brilliant Proof
|
VERY CH BR PF |
$2,200.00
|
Glass-reflective fields and microscopically exact devices define this luxurious virtual Gem.

1881 Choice Brilliant Proof

CH BR PF |
$2,200.00
|
- with claims to the Gem category. This gold-bordered silver-white coin boasts an altogether remarkable strike. Liberty's full facial features and diadem are boldly detailed, drapery at sea level is complete, all stars present full centrils. The eagle's feathers are remarkably complete from breast to the legs.
