Pleasing PR63 Cameo 1905 Ten

1905 $10 PR63 Cameo NGC. Coinage of Liberty Head ten dollar proofs reached its zenith in 1900, when 120 pieces were struck, and by the time the 1905 issue was created, reduced demand meant that only 86 specimens were coined. Most examples of the brilliant-era 1905 proof eagle show little to no contrast, which makes the cameo effect on this Select piece important. Powerfully mirrored yellow-gold surfaces show occasional splashes of milky toning close to the devices. Though the fields show a handful of light to moderate hairlines, the boldly impressed portrait and eagle are largely unaffected. Census: 1 in 63 Cameo, 13 finer (6/08).(Registry values: P1)
