Description du lot

1906 Liberty Head Half Eagle. JD-1, the only known dies. Rarity-5. Proof-55 (PCGS). CAC. Light handling separates this highly reflective, fully struck specimen from a higher grade. Handsome medium gold patina throughout with plenty of eye appeal. At just 85 pieces produced, the 1906 has the lowest mintage among 20th century Proof Liberty Head half eagles. It is the rarest issue in this group, John W. Dannreuther (2018) estimating that only 50 to 65 coins are extant in all grades. PCGS# 8501. NGC ID: 28DC. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
