1883 Hawaiian $1 NGC PF62 CAM
1883 Hawaiian Dollar. NGC graded Proof 62 Cameo. Mostly white with a hint of gold toning near the edges a beautiful cameo two-toned Proof. Only 26 struck. Virtually ice-white devices spread light in every direction, the dies having been carefully made to impart a frosted effect. Proofs of both American coins and Hawaiian coins in the 1880s were struck on the mint's hydraulic press, which gave a unique "squeeze" on the dies. This imparted all of the deepest design from the dies onto the struck planchet. As carefully made as this coin is, it is also covered the mint bloom from the mirror fields to the aforementioned frosted devices, bidders will want to make a special note of the coin's detail. Clockwork precision seen in all areas. A few light hairlines here and there mainly account for the grade; also, a small scuff on the obverse behind Kalakaua's neck. If you have never owned a Hawaiian Proof, purchase of this silver dollar will be a luxurious indulgence! Pop 2; 1 in PF63 Cameo at NGC.
Estimated Value $12,000 - 15,000.
