PCGS graded Proof 66 Red. Ex -
Ira & Larry Goldberg Coins & Collectibles, Inc.'s "Benson Collection, Part
I", February 16, 18-20, 2001, lot 1134, illustrated, where it was
described as follows: "…Another attractive example with superb surfaces
and great eye appeal. The mirrors are moderate. There are clash marks
clearly evident on both sides of the coin. This is found on all coins from
this die pair.
A high percentage of the proof issues in the 1880's show some type of a
lack of quality control. It is common to find coins that were struck from
known proof dies that were obviously struck only once, possibly on a high
speed press. Although these coins will have mirrored fields, they will
also have rounded edges and some striking weakness on the feathertips and
lower hair curl. These were struck as proofs and included in the proof set
sales of the year.", sold for $4,600.00
