1873 No Arrows. Closed 3. Gem Brilliant Proof. Deepest mirror brilliance is imbued with delightfully even pearl and blue toning showing the faintest flavor of clear orange-gold for the most glorious visual quality and appeal. One of 600 Proofs struck of the Without Arrows Type in this busy year, and a coin that would be hard to duplicate for sheer beauty.
Ex Queller Family Collection of U.S. Half Dollars (Stack's, October 2002, lot 641).
