<B>1882 T$1 PR66 Deep Cameo PCGS.</B></I> The Philadelphia Mint produced no more business strike Trade dollars after 1877, but struck proofs annually through 1883. The very rare 1884 and 1885 proofs were unknown to the collector community for many years after their manufacture. The 1878 to 1883 proofs were apparently popular with contemporary collectors, given their relatively high mintages. For example, 1,987 proofs were struck in 1880, substantially more than the 1,355 proof Morgan dollars. Perhaps collector interest had fallen by 1882, since more proof Morgans (1,100 pieces) were struck than Trade dollars (1,097 pieces). The present specimen has splendid orange-gold margins and brilliant fields. Icy-white devices that have been boldly struck provide further eye appeal.
