CAC approved with sticker denoting Premium Quality. If you desire the ultimate 1881-S deep mirror cameo prooflike dollar -- this is it. The technical quality and sheer visual appeal eclipse the monster PCGS MS66 DMPL I sold for $4,500 at the 2005 ANA Convention in San Francisco. And, this specimen is also better than another stunning example I recently sold to a prominent DMPL collector for a price that surpassed the $7,000 mark. Simply put (in the vernacular of today's youth) -- this coin is the bomb. It is boldly struck with wonderfully preserved brilliant surfaces. The fields exhibit ultra-deep crystal clear reflectivity throughout and dazzling snow white devices that provide a spellbinding black and white cameo contrast. One look at this exquisite coin will leave you breathless as it is the very definition of flash, eye appeal and pizzazz at the highest level. Moreover, this date is very scarce in this condition. According to the latest online population report PCGS has certified just seventy-one coins at this level with only seven finer. Of those seventy-one coins thus certified -- very few of them are ultra-deep mirror black and white cameo prooflikes. In fact I've seen five of the six MS67 DMPL's, all of which were brilliant prooflikes with very little cameo contrast. This magnificent specimen is a very rare and special coin indeed. I seriously doubt that it has many peers.
