- 1905 Liberty Head Half Eagle. JD-1, the only known dies. Rarity-5. Proof-58 (PCGS). CAC.
Vivid golden-yellow surfaces retain virtually all of the highly reflective finish from the dies. With nearly full striking detail, as well, it is obvious that only minimal handling separates this coin from a grade at or above the Proof-60 level. A scarce to rare issue in all grades, the Proof 1905 half eagle was produced to the extent of just 108 pieces. John W. Dannreuther (2018) estimates that survivors number just 60 to 75 coins. The vast majority, including the Fairmont-JBR specimen offered here, display the all-brilliant finish that characterizes the United States Mint's Proof Liberty Head gold coinage of the 1902 to 1907 era.
Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection - JBR Set.
PCGS# 8500. NGC ID: 28DB.
