1884 Gem Brilliant Proof. Pale olive-golden toning is embellished by an ever so delicate trace of iridescence. The surface quality of this assertive, silky-mirrored specimen approaches perfection. Of the 3942 proofs minted, only a small fraction can rival the quality of this example.
Ex S.S. Forest Collection (Stack's, September 15-16, 1972, lot 789).
