Description

1878 Twenty-Cent Piece. Proof-45 (PCGS).
An otherwise silver gray specimen with blushes of rose-russet and olive-blue peripheral toning that are more extensive on the reverse. Obviously a Proof that was placed into circulation, perhaps when it failed to sell to a contemporary collector, as this was a common practice for the United States Mint during the second half of the 19th and earliest years of the 20th centuries.
PCGS# 5306. NGC ID: 27H5.
