1858 Proof-66 NGC. CAC.

A gorgeous, near-flawless Gem Proof of the date with rich steel-gray mirrors that enjoy splashes of lively electric blue and pale rose iridescence throughout. The strike is as sharp as the proverbial tack, and the eye appeal is definitely top-notch. From an estimated mintage of 210 or so pieces, mainly struck for inclusion in silver sets of the date. (Beginning as early as the 1860s, it was believed that only 80 Proofs of the date were struck of each of the silver denominations, but the number of Proofs available today exceeds that figure by a tidy sum in all denominations.) Some curlicue lint marks near star 13 are the only marks an attentive eye will find under low magnification. A real beauty that deserves strong bidding recognition.
NGC Census: 12; 2 finer (both Proof-67): 5 of the 12 are designated Cameo by NGC.
