- 1899 Liberty Head Half Eagle. JD-1, the only known dies. Rarity-5-. Proof-61 Deep Cameo (PCGS). This beautiful specimen displays the boldly contrasted finish for which late 1890s Proof Liberty Head gold coinage is known. Vivid deep golden-yellow color throughout with frosty, fully defined features set against highly reflective fields. Wispy handling marks do little more than define the numeric grade. Only 99 Proof half eagles were struck in 1899, of which just 50 to 65 pieces are estimated to survive in all grades (per John W. Dannreuther, 2018). Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection-Hendricks Set. PCGS Population: 1; 12 finer in this category (Proof-68 Deep Cameo finest). PCGS# 98494. NGC ID: 28D5.
