<B>1898-S<img border='0' src='http://www.heritagecoins.com/images/star.gif' width=10 height=10>$1> MS65 Deep Prooflike NGC.</B></I> Most observers would consider this beautiful Gem to be fully brilliant, but a whisper of tan on Liberty's cheek is noted for accuracy. The devices are thickly frosted and provide excellent white-on-black contrast with the impressively reflective fields. This example is sharply struck and, save for a trace of softness on the eagle's left (facing) claw, the strike could be regarded as full. No marks are worthy of comment, and the reverse on its own approaches an even higher grade. This is the finest Deep Prooflike 1898-S dollar (and only Gem) NGC has certified (9/06).
