From the Spink Auction about 6 months ago….
‘’Auction: 22888 - The John Robert Fletcher 1888 Full US Proof Set Auction
Lot: 1888
(g) NGC PF64-PF66 CAC
@DisneyFan said (corrected):
What I find interesting is the PCGS grades basically range from PF64 to PF65. There are no 65+ and only one PF66 - the quarter.
It emphasizes how difficult PF65+ and higher grades were/are to find, even when bought directly from the mint and stored carefully over time.

I'd pay $92. That'd double the original purchasers money.
