1877 20C PR65 Cameo NGC. BF-1, R.3. The 1877 twenty cent piece was only struck in proof format. Its mintage of 510 coins produced few high-grade survivors. Cameos are scarce in all grades and are rare in Gem or better condition. Only a few Ultra Cameos are known this fine. The present Gem Cameo displays a bold strike and outstanding field-device contrast. Brilliant interiors cede to lightly toned golden-russet borders. Census: 19 in 65 Cameo, 11 finer; 1 in 65 Ultra Cameo, 2 finer (6/20). HID03101062020 © 2020 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved
