Pleasing PR63 Cameo 1903 Twenty

1903 $20 PR63 Cameo PCGS. Garrett and Guth offer a capsule-view of this issue in their Encyclopedia of U.S. Gold Coins: "The mintage for the Proof 1903 double eagle is the highest for the type. Of the 158 coins struck, it is probable that 40 to 50 coins have survived. Most of the Proof 1903 double eagles seen have very little if any cameo surfaces." Yet this example, like the one in the Smithsonian, is significantly contrasted if not heavily frosted on the well-defined devices. Minor hairlines and occasional hazy elements are visible on the deep yellow-gold fields. Population: 5 in 63 Cameo, 2 finer (3/09).(Registry values: P1)
