1875 T$1 PR67 NGC. Type One Reverse, identified by the
<B>1875<T$1> PR67 NGC.</B></I> Type One Reverse, identified by the presence of a berry beneath the right (facing) claw. Only 700 proof 1875 trade dollars were struck, and based upon our auction records, these pieces appear to be about equally divided between the Type One and Type Two designs. Demand for 1875 proofs is furthered by the scarcity of Mint State examples, since the 1875 has the lowest business strike mintage from Philadelphia. The present Superb Gem is beautifully toned in rich orange, ocean-blue, and ruby-red hues. Post-strike imperfections are essentially absent, and the strike is precise except for the eagle's right (facing) claw. NGC and PCGS combined have certified only five pieces at the PR67 level with none finer (9/06).
