Brilliant 1901 Double Eagle, PR61 Cameo

1901 $20 PR61 Cameo ANACS. Cameo proofs are created when the devices of a die remain unpolished, while the die fields are polished to create the full mirrored effect. Beginning in 1901, Mint personnel were against the contrasting appearance of those proof coins, so they took steps to eliminate any contrast by polishing the crevices of each die as well as the fields. Cameo proofs are relatively scarce throughout the early 1909. This piece has amazing bright yellow surfaces with a number of scattered marks on each side, although the overall aesthetic appeal is excellent.(Registry values: P1)
