Summer 2025 Global Showcase Auction U.S. Coins

详细说明: Offered here is a truly exceptional Gem Deep Cameo Proof half eagle from the final decade of the 19th century. Beautiful deep golden-yellow color blankets both sides, complementing the splendid orange-peel texture seen in the fields. These are also impressively mirrored, and deeply so to provide sharp contrast with the satiny devices. This superb technical execution is matched by superior preservation, the surfaces virtually pristine and a delight to behold.<p>A gorgeous Gem in all regards, few survivors from this 53-piece mintage can compare in either aesthetic or technical merit. With only 25 to 35 examples known (per John W. Dannreuther, 2018), the Proof 1891 is rare at any level of preservation. For Set Registry collectors or connoisseurs of the most exquisite classic U.S. Mint Proof gold coinage, this stunning specimen represents a significant bidding opportunity not to be overlooked.
