Lot 3666
1885 $1 Gold Indian. PCGS graded Proof 66. Nice untoned example. Only 1,105 proofs minted. Pop 20; 3 in 67. Splendidly lustrous, both sides of this orange-gold example exhibit oscillating mirror-smooth effects. A bold impact was left by the recoil of the specially hardened Proof dies that struck this 1885 example, leaving their rigid impression behind, although there is some residaul graininess in a portion of the hair at the ear (PCGS # 7635) .
Estimated Value $10,000 - 11,000.
