Enchanting Select Proof 1906 Eagle

1906 $10 PR63 PCGS. As for many gold coins of the United States, the mintage hardly tells the entire story for the proof eagle of 1906. In spite of a stated production run of 77 specimens, most experts believe that fewer than half that number survive, though there is considerable disagreement over just how many are extant today. Regardless of the actual number, the proof 1906 eagle is a 20th century rarity. This decisively struck representative displays vivid honey-gold color with orange accents. The strongly mirrored fields shine through a degree of haze, and light, scattered hairlines and faint contact marks appear around the devices as well. Despite these impairments, this eagle displays beautifully, and its historic appeal is undeniable. Population: 3 in 63, 20 finer (6/07).(Registry values: P1)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 28GD, PCGS# 8846, Greysheet# 9735)

Weight: 16.72 grams
