Lot Title: 1880 Proof, SEGS, as described
Lot Number: 768
Description: Gavin "John" Rose Collection. The fields on each side, but especially the obverse, suggest some sort of professional alteration, as the brilliance, while "all there", isn't properly reflective as seen on other proof examples. Surprisingly, there are very few distracting hairlines present, and indeed, one cannot help but be pleased with the overall pleasing brilliance. While each side retains technical aspirations toward a proof cameo designation (SEGS opines "cameo" in fact), we do note that the contrast probably will not garner that same aesthetic at another grading service, as the letters themselves seem to lack the frosty texture necessary to allow for the designation. We recommend "PF-60/altered surface" as a possible alternative grade.

This lot may contain an item not certified by ANACS, PCGS, or NGC. While Scotsman Auction Co. is typically conservative in our descriptions of items not certified by one of these companies, we cannot guarantee our grading estimation will match their grade. We highly recommend that collectors seeking items certified by a third-party grading service only bid on items that have already been certified. No lot can be returned because of a variance in judgment with regards to grade.
