1891 Morgan $1 PCGS PF68 CAM
1891 Morgan Dollar. PCGS graded Proof 68 Cameo. Lovely blue and lilac toning. Only 650 Proofs struck. Strong eye appeal characterizes this Superb Proof Morgan Dollar. Its visual allure is based on a combination of the technical perfection of the coin's surfaces and the multiple gradations of deep toning that cover much of each side. An additional element of beauty is seen in the spotlight-like, untoned white circles, offset on the obverse, and a more central on the reverse. These spotlights of brilliance endow the coin with a contrast against the pleasant smoky-crimson to blue-green toning. The central devices are sharp and well defined, this being uncommon on some Proof dollars from the '80s and '90s. As a point of interest, perhaps as many as half of the surviving 1891 Proofs show central softness. This coin, regarded from the point of the specialist's critical eye and revealing magnifying lens, appears nearly perfect with exceptional visual appeal. It is the only Cameo Proof 68 certified by PCGS of this date, and is tied for finest certified honors with two coins graded the same by NGC. Pop 1; none finer at PCGS (PCGS # 87326) .
Estimated Value $35,000 - 40,000.
