1892 S$1 PR67 PCGS. The proof mintage for the 1892 Mor
<B>1892 S$1 PR67 PCGS.</B></I> The proof mintage for the 1892 Morgan dollar was 1,245 pieces. David Bowers (2006) writes that "The proof mintage was overly large for this year as there was an exceptional demand for 1892 silver proof sets, which included the new Barber dime, quarter, and half dollar design." As indicated by the population data, several hundred of these proofs have survived through the Gem grade level, though they are elusive any finer.<BR> The PR67 specimen in this lot displays small areas of brilliance in the centers, flanked by golden-tan, faded crimson, and cobalt-blue toning. Mildly frosted design elements are sharply impressed, and highlighted by strongly reflective fields. Both sides are wonderfully preserved. Population: 17 in 67, 2 finer (2/07).<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
