Description

1900 Five Dollar, PR65 Deep Cameo
Profoundly Reflective Mirrors

1900 $5 PR65 Deep Cameo PCGS. CAC. JD-1, R.4. Ex: Simpson. The 1900 half eagle enjoys the highest proof mintage in the entire Liberty Head five dollar series with 230 specimens struck. A healthy number of them, estimated between 120 and 150 pieces, survive in all grades, though a distinct minority exhibit the Deep Cameo contrast seen here. Only 19% of the submissions at PCGS qualify for that designation.

This Gem enjoys profound yellow-gold surfaces with deeply reflective, mirrorlike fields surrounding fully frosted and razor-sharp devices. A few minuscule obverse contact marks pose no distraction. Terrific eye appeal. Population: 4 in 65 Deep Cameo, 5 finer. CAC: 3 in 65, 3 finer (1/22).(Registry values: P1)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 28D6, PCGS# 98495, Greysheet# 9286)

Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
Weight: 8.36 grams
