August 2021 ANA U.S. Coins Auction

详细说明: Exceedingly Rare Proof 1893 Eagle 1893 Liberty Head Eagle. JD-1, the only known dies. Rarity-6-. Proof-65 Deep Cameo (PCGS). This rare Proof Liberty Head eagle displays exceptional Gem Deep Cameo quality with the field to device contrast strong. The fields are decidedly reflective and the devices are softly frosted in texture. The entire coin offers a handsome deep orange-gold color that, in the fields, appears to "go black" as the coin turns away from a direct light source. The strike is full with razor sharp definition throughout. This carefully produced and expertly preserved specimen will please even the most discerning numismatist. As with most Proof eagles from the 1890s, the 1893 was produced to a high standard of quality with most examples displaying strong cameo contrast. The problem, however, is finding the coins as from a mintage of 55 pieces, numismatic scholars estimate that only 20 to 35 Proof 1893 eagles are extant. (Dannreuther, 2018: 20 to 25 pieces; PCGS CoinFacts: 25 to 35 pieces). The coin offered here numbers among the finest certified and is sure to see spirited bidding at auction. Provenance: From the Castle Pines Collection. PCGS Population: 2; 3 finer in this category (Proof-66 Deep Cameo finest). PCGS# 98833. NGC ID: 28FY. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
