Vacation GTG - 1876 Trade Dollar

I certainly would have bought it. I’m more confident the bits a MS-64. Can’t wait for the reveal.

PR 62 (the 62 is just a WAG as we all know proofs are graded by hairlines which are very hard to see in static photos).
It has the transitional obverse (recut extra finger but type 1 ribbon ends) and Rev E ( die chip on far right side of EPU scroll).
A really interesting R5 variety.
Congrats on the acquisition.

 

Proof - Details cleaned (PR Genuine Cleaned UNC detail)

 

And the reveal. I have to call @ksparrow the winner on this one.

 

Wow. Totally caught off base. The fact that I mentioned 'medalic' in an earlier set of Randy's photogs should have clued me.

 

OK not too far off. The second set of photos clinched it for me. Someday I hope to have a proof from the 1873-1878 era.

 

Wow! That’s one heck of an addition to your hoard, Randy. Congratulations!

 

The second set of photos confirmed it was a proof to me as well but I was overly harsh in calling it cleaned (more of a guess).

Congrats on adding a Proof Trade Dollar to the collection!

 

Dang it, I just now saw this thread and was going to guess PR64. Especially the second set of photos screamed proof to me, but I'll never understand proof grading by the TPGs. 61?? An MS61 would be riddled with bag marks.
