1900 PR 64 PCGS. Perhaps it was the celebration of the turn-of-the-century that caused the mint to strike 230 proof half eagles this year, approximately double the number normally issued in the other late years of the Liberty five-dollar design. This is the final year of the contrasting method of proofing, and this coin is no exception. The fields are deeply mirrored and the devices heavily frosted resulting in a fine black and white contrast. A few minuscule hairlines are noted over both sides, perhaps from a light wiping, but these do not detract from the coin's overall appearance. (PCGS# 8495)

1900 PR 64 Cameo NGC. Perhaps it was the celebration of the turn-of-the-century that caused the mint to strike 230 proof half eagles this year, approximately double that normally issued in the other late years of the Liberty five-dollar design. This is the final year of the contrasting method of proofing, and this coin is no exception. The fields are deeply mirrored and the devices heavily frosted resulting in a fine black and white contrast. A few minuscule hairlines are noted over both sides, perhaps from a light wiping, but these do not detract from this coin's overall appearance. A hint of violet color is seen at the lower portion of the reverse. Population: 1 in PR 64, none are finer (6/96). (PCGS# 8495)

1900 $5 PR63 PCGS. The 1900 boasts the highest mintage in the entire proof Liberty Half Eagle series. We do not intend to imply that the 1900 is a common coin in an absolute sense. After all, just 230 pieces were originally produced, and survivors are rare when viewed in the wider context of the hobby. Richly colored, the present example displays well blended orange-copper and yellow-gold hues over fully impressed features. There are only a few wispy handling marks, none of which are really outwardly distracting, and the glassy fields are readily evident as the coin rotates under a light. A strong candidate for inclusion in a proof type set of U.S. gold. (PCGS# 8495)

Auction 124 | Lot 6828 » Half Eagles » Liberty Half Eagles
1900 PR 50. An unquestioned proof striking, the date is low in the exergual area as seen on all proofs of this date. While slightly dull in the fields, the more protected areas of the devices still show the intense mirrored flash of the proof finish. Quite a flashy coin for having been handled in circulation for a short time. This and the 1897, and in fact, all the other circulated proof gold in this sale were pulled from European bank holdings of gold in the 1940s and '50s. (PCGS# 8495)
