Description

Affordable Lightly Circulated Proof 1905 Double Eagle

1905 $20 PR55 PCGS. An unmistakable proof striking, even though the obverse, in particular, has encountered rough contact with other coins. As a result, numerous choppy abrasions on that side are somewhat amplified by watery reflectivity in the fields. Just 92 proofs of this date were originally struck, of which fewer than half are believed to have survived the 20th century. To this description, we add only that the limited production of 58,900 business strike Double Eagles in 1905 attaches significant date collector pressure to the present proof offering. Population: 1 in 55, 17 finer (9/04).(#9121) (Registry values: P1)

Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
