Ex - Ira & Larry Goldberg Coins & Collectibles, Inc.'s "Benson Collection,
Part I", February 16, 18-20, 2001, lot 1116, illustrated, where it was
described as follows: "…This is a very attractive example with moderately
deep mirrors and outstanding surfaces. Starting in 1878 many things
changed at the Mint. Proof production of minor coinage increased to two to
three times the previous year's mintage. The actual mintage of minor
proofs were now recorded with accuracy. The Mint's minor coin production
was based more on expected demand than actual demand. The many unsold
examples were sold in bulk to local coin dealers at or near face value.
Also starting this year planchet production for minor coinage was shifted
from the Mint to outside sources. The quality of proof coinage improved.",
