Proof Morgan Dollars
1886 $1 PR67 Ultra Cameo NGC. Ex: Chappell Collection. Dave Bowers writes in A Guide Book of Morgan Silver Dollars, fifth edition: "Nice 1886 Proof dollars exist, but they are harder to fine than certain other dates mentioned thus far." Most surviving examples show little or no contrast, with only several dozen pieces believed known in the Cameo category. Ultra/Deep Cameos are extremely rare with five reported in all grades. The population of Ultra/Deep Cameos includes three at PCGS, one in PR64 and two in PR67, and two other PR67s at NGC (6/17). The present example is easily one of the most important proof 1886 Morgans known. The strike is full, and luminous, frosty luster envelops the design elements. The fields show glasslike reflectivity and are devoid of marks. No toning is present.
