The 19th century proof thread, post your 19th century proof
I love 19th century proofs, they are just so beautiful and I just can’t stop looking at them. For all those 19th century proof fans, post your own proof for the 1800s.
Here is my Little proof collection to start the discussion

Haha thanks! I actually also have the finest known 1839-O (NGC PR65) that I’m going to try to cross later this year. The 1839-O is actually more rare than the 1838-O (in proof) but the 1838-O came first and has no business strikes so of course it is the rock star.

I wasn't expecting to see an 1838-O half pop up in this thread! Maybe I'll find one in my pocket change tomorrow too?

Always thought the 1838 o half was a business strike. Well now I know so thanks for sharing 👍. Super cool.

While I know these aren’t considered proofs or on polished planchets, they aren’t normal strikes either
