- Rarely Offered Gem Cameo Proof 1907 Liberty Head Eagle
1907 Liberty Head Eagle. JD-1, the only known dies. Rarity-5. Proof-65 Cameo (PCGS). CAC.
Offered is an exceptional Gem specimen from the final year of the rare and challenging Proof Liberty Head eagle series. Both sides display vivid golden-apricot color and are fully struck with razor sharp detail to even the most intricate design elements. The finish is brilliant in the fields, although the design elements exhibit a soft satin texture that provides an uncommon degree of cameo contrast for a Proof Liberty Head gold coin from the 1902 to 1907 era. It is a highly appealing coin that would do justice to the finest Proof gold type or date set.
The long-lived Liberty Head eagle series passed into history in 1907 with circulation strikes produced at the Philadelphia, Denver and San Francisco mints. The first-named facility also struck 74 Proofs, most of which have survived. The 1907 is one of the more available issues in the Proof Liberty eagle series, and its final-year status makes it a favorite among specimen gold type collectors. In an absolute sense, of course, all Proof Liberty Head eagles are rare, and numismatic expert John W. Dannreuther (2018) accounts for just 45 to 55 survivors of the 1907 in all grades. This is a strike and condition rarity Gem Cameo specimen that would grace any cabinet with its presence.
Provenance: From the Castle Pines Collection.
PCGS Population: 2; 6 finer in this category (Proof-66 Cameo finest).
