Lot Description

This is a highly desirable survivor from a Proof mintage of 150 pieces, one of 90 to 110 believed extant (per John W. Dannreuther, <em>United States Proof Coins</em>, 2018). Beautiful Cameo Proof qualities are on full display on both sides of this vivid golden-orange specimen. Fully struck and satiny, the design elements contrast nicely with deeply reflective fields.
