- 1905 Liberty Head Half Eagle. JD-1, the only known dies. Rarity-5. Proof-60 (PCGS). Fully impressed surfaces reveal modest cameo-like contrast between reflective fields and more satiny design elements. Vivid deep gold color throughout with no individually mentionable handling marks. A scarce to rare issue in all grades, the Proof 1905 half eagle was produced to the extent of just 108 pieces. John W. Dannreuther (2018) estimates that survivors number just 60 to 75 coins. The vast majority, including the Fairmont-Hendricks specimen offered here, display the all-brilliant finish that characterizes the United States Mint's Proof Liberty Head gold coinage of the 1902 to 1907 era. Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection-Hendricks Set. PCGS# 8500. NGC ID: 28DB. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
