Early Proof Sets
1892 Six-Piece Proof Set. This attractive, originally toned six-coin set is PCGS certified in individual holders and contains:

Indian cent PR64 Red and Brown. Areas of deep olive and pale blue toning mask the orange luster on the obverse with subdued orange mint color on the reverse. The overall appearance is weighted toward the Red half of the Red and Brown designation.

Liberty nickel PR65. Light gold and iridescent toning on the obverse complement light gray on the reverse. The fields are nonetheless deeply reflective, and the strike is bold.

Barber dime PR64. Dappled steel-blue and silver toning on the obverse and grayish-brown intermingled with blue on the reverse give this Choice proof a striking original appearance, backlit by glimmering fields.

Barber quarter PR66. Rich cobalt-blue toning on each side is visited by hints of lavender and champagne. The exceptional preservation of this boldly struck Premium Gem becomes even more enjoyable under magnification.

Barber half dollar PR65 Cameo. Fully mirrored fields and lustrous devices are well-contrasted beneath lovely iridescent toning. This is the only Cameo in the set, and its aesthetic merit is arguably the finest of the six coins.

Morgan dollar PR64+. Toned in rings of blue and violet with excellent eye appeal. Any faint, grade-limiting hairlines are unnoticed beneath the outstanding original patina.
