Pricing & History
A glittering jewel, with just a hint of milky toning on both sides and light frosting on the high points. Delightful, orange-peel surfaces. NGC reports 9 in this grade, with only 2 finer (both Proof-68). Proof-66 examples of this date have been approaching the $10,000 mark for some time, so this nicer coin should reach our estimate range with no problem. The overall mintage for the 1885 Gold Dollar was slightly over 1,000 Proofs and slightly over 10,000 circulation strikes. Thus, any example of this date can be considered a rarity. Many of the Proofs were spent (either mistakenly or deliberately) and many of the circulation strikes are Prooflike, but come with poorly struck borders. Thus, top grade examples of this date are extremely rare. Even circulation strikes are nearly impossible to find in MS-67! Color photo.
