PR65 Deep Cameo 1900 Half Eagle

1900 $5 Half Eagle PR65 Deep Cameo PCGS. As the highest-mintage proof Liberty half eagle issue (230 pieces struck), the 1900 is well known for its availability, though its total population is comparable to that of the significantly lower-mintage 1901 issue. Also interesting to note is that compared to 46 pieces not awarded any sort of contrast designation, PCGS has graded only 11 Deep Cameo specimens of this issue (11/09). This Gem ranks highly among them, as evidenced by the population of just two coins in PR65 Deep Cameo with only one Deep Cameo coin finer. Smooth "black" fields offer virtually perfect contrast with the textured yellow-gold of the devices. Only a hint of cloudiness is visible below Liberty's hair bun.
This coin is part of a complete 10-piece 1900 proof set sold individually as lots 2075 to 2084.(Registry values: P1)
