A 97-coin mintage defines the issue, however, only about half of these coins survive today. Nine pieces have been certified finer than the present offering, and only four of those boast a CAC sticker! This issue is often seen with CAM or DCAM contrast, but the high technical quality of this piece sets it apart. A fantastic orange-peel texture coats both sides of the sharply struck and well-preserved near-gem. A two-toned proof with light champagne surfaces underneath a brilliant display of flashy honey-gold hues. A stellar coin with outstanding eye appeal, this piece is teetering on the edge of gem and would not look out of place in a PR65DCAM holder in our opinion. No marks or abrasion worthy of mention! This would please the discerning gold specialist and would make a great addition to any finest gold cabinet. - Liberty Head $2.5
