Losbeschreibung

A flashy Choice Mint State example of this fabled key date entry in the United States Mint's classic commemorative gold coin series. Vivid medium gold surfaces retain full mint luster, the reverse alone smooth enough to support an even higher Uncirculated grade. As seen so often on survivors of this type, the obverse shows signs of minor handling, in this case a trace of friction at and before Athena's cheek that has muted the luster a bit in those areas. There are no sizeable marks, however, and striking detail remains full. The rare and impressive Panama-Pacific $50 commemoratives are featured in the popular reference <em>100 Greatest U.S. Coins</em> by Jeff Garrett and Ron Guth, where they are ranked #29 in the fifth (2019) edition. High quality specimens such as this are always in demand among advanced numismatists.
