详细说明: This lovely Liberty Head double eagle exhibits warm, even color in dominant golden-honey. There is enough of a satin texture to the design elements to support the Cameo designation, although the deeply mirrored finish in the fields dominates the appearance. Fully struck in all areas, and carefully preserved at the Gem Proof level.<p>The penultimate Proof in the popular Liberty Head double eagle series, the 1906 has a mintage of 94 pieces. David W. Akers' estimate of only 40 to 50 survivors proved accurate despite being put forth in the years prior to third party certification. Even with current PCGS and NGC population data, numismatic scholars are still pretty much in agreement with Akers' original estimate. Jeff Garrett and Ron Guth (2008) account for 45 to 50 coins, <em>PCGS CoinFacts</em> suggests 50 to 60 survivors, while John W. Dannreuther (2018) estimates 50 to 65. Regardless of the estimate, this issue is obviously rare in an absolute sense, as are all classic U.S. Mint Proof gold coins. Visually appealing, this offered coin is a delight to behold and will catch the eye of advanced gold enthusiasts.
