1907 $5, CAM PR (PCGS#88502)

November 2025 Showcase Auction U.S. Coins

Lot Description: The 1907 is the final Proof issue in the long running Liberty Head half eagle series that began in 1839. The mintage is a scant 92 pieces, one of the lowest among 20th century issues of this type. Survivors are rare and, per <em>PCGS CoinFacts</em>, number only 60 to 75 pieces. (This estimate is mirrored by John W. Dannreuther in his 2018 reference on United States Mint Proof coinage.) Additionally, many examples are impaired with noticeable hairlines and other blemishes, with the result that the 1907 is not only elusive in an absolute sense, but is one of the more challenging late date Proof Liberty Head half eagles to locate in high grades. We anticipate strong competition for this nicely preserved Gem, especially since is also boasts an uncommon degree of field to degree contrast in a 20th century Proof half eagle of this design type.Due to the size and nature of this lot, additional shipping charges apply.
