Way cool - Complete 1873 Proof Set

An unbelievable 14 coins in all. 11 are in the same original set with the 3 "arrows" coins added from another original set sometime later. If someone really has deep pockets, you could add the gold proofs and have a 20 piece proof set. I don't think any other date offers such a wide range of type coins in one set. A complete US major type set has 134 coins - you would be over 10% done with this set!

Not sure why, but Heritage does not provise an image of the Trade Dollar. It has similar toning to the Seated Dollar.
