详细说明: Exquisite Gem Proof 1900 Eagle 1900 Liberty Head Eagle. Proof-65+ Cameo (NGC). CAC. Highly attractive with vivid medium gold patina, this outstanding specimen really needs to be seen to be fully appreciated. Fully impressed and satiny in finish, the devices contrast markedly with deeply mirrored fields. The delicate surfaces are remarkably pristine for both the type and issue, confirming the validity of the premium Gem grade from NGC. Popular with collectors then and now as a turn of the century issue, the 1900 has the highest mintage in the Proof Liberty Head eagle series with 120 pieces produced. Of course, that an issue with just 120 coins struck has the highest mintage for its type confirms the awesome rarity of Proof Liberty Head gold coinage as a group. Not all Proof 1900 eagles struck were sold to contemporary collectors, those that were not being destroyed in the Mint through melting. This is one of perhaps just 50 to 65 specimens believed extant, and it is a coin that will please even the most discerning numismatist. NGC Census: 1; 5 finer in this category (Proof-67 Cameo finest). PCGS# 88840. NGC ID: 28G7. Click here for certification details from NGC.
