85307 1875-S 20C PR63BC 1 1

Does the "BC" mean branch cameo?

Maybe a typo for DC.

What's the cert number? Use it to see what's in the database.

Btw there are no 1875-s proofs.

Placid, there are, indeed, 1875-S branch mint Proofs.

Sorry, I looked at coinfacts and no proofs were shown.
Of course they list the 1884-cc morgan proof there.

Please, no need to apologize

I saw it in the Driftwood Proof 20 cent Registry set. The Legend set has the Benson coin in this slot but it is a PR63, with no designation.

Doug,

I see in the pop. report, after the regular mint state and Proof 20c piece sections, that there is a coin #5307 (1875-S) with letters "PRBM" under the heading "Branch Mint" - that would likely stand for "Proof, Branch Mint."

There is also a coin #85307 with "PRBC" - I think that would stand for a Cameo Proof.
