Lot Description

Enchanting Ultra Gem surfaces are originally toned in mottled silver and powder blue iridescence, so-called by many as "oil slick" toning due to long time storage in the original tissue paper and/or cello wrappers from the Mint. Fully struck with a uniformly brilliant finish, this is an exceptionally well preserved, conditionally rare survivor from a mintage of 11,279 Proofs.
