174The Collectors' Auction 2009 on 10/16/2009$575.00
1880 PCGS PF-66.
This borders upon being an absolutely pristine coin, with the bright silvery fields just faintly accented with streaks of olive-gold color. Cameo contrast is minimized for this proof, and the result...

1880 NGC PF-67.
A stunning superb gem that features completely pristine fields and an incredibly sharp strike. While the obverse provides some mild cameo effect, the reverse is entirely brilliant and was struck off...

1880 MS-63 and 1887 MS-60.
