Description
The Trompeter 1898 Ten Dollar
PR63 Ultra Cameo
1898 $10 PR63 Ultra Cameo NGC. CAC. Ex: Trompeter. This
Ultra Cameo Select proof bears one of the most famous proof gold
pedigrees of all: Ed Trompeter, whose numismatic estate was
purchased by Heritage for more than $15 million in 1998, setting a
world record for a private coin transaction. The obverse of this
proof Liberty eagle shows just a few light hairlines in pale yellow
fields that show generous orange-peel texture, and that side looks
great for a PR63 Ultra Cameo grade. The reverse shows two small
clusters of contact on either side of the eagle's neck that
contribute to the final technical designation, but the contrast on
that side exceeds even the Ultra Cameo effect of the obverse. A
great combination of beauty, rarity, and numismatic history that
should prove irresistible to even the most discerning
collectors.(Registry values: P1)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 28G5, PCGS# 98838, Greysheet# 9713)
