Lot Description

Lovely Cameo Proof 1900 Eagle 1900 Liberty Head Eagle. Proof-63 Cameo (PCGS). CAC. A fully struck, golden yellow example that also sports a boldly cameoed finish from the dies. Our multiple offerings in the present sale notwithstanding, the 1900 is a rare issue despite having the highest mintage among Proof Liberty Head eagles. This is a lovely Choice Cameo survivor that represents a fleeting bidding opportunity for the advance type or date collector with an interest in classic U.S. Mint Proof gold coinage. PCGS# 88840. NGC ID: 28G7. PCGS Population: 1; 2 finer in this category (Proof-65 Cameo finest). Provenance: From the Alexander Collection. Acquired June 17, 1952 from Lou Ros (?). Collector envelope with provenance notation included.
