Beautiful apricot hues shimmer across razor-sharp devices and glowing mirrored fields. Marks associated with the grade are minor and within expectation. The only date in the Half Eagle series that is proof-only with a mintage of just 87 pieces and a survival estimate of 35-40 known. Pieces of any quality are seldom offered.

CAC. Well struck with satiny luster over mark-free surfaces.

Blast white except for a thin ring of gold at the rim. The fields are ultra deep mirrored and contrast beautifully with the heavily frosted design features to create a strong cameo effect.

Vibrant luster and a sharp strike with a light gold tint.

Frosty white devices contrast with deep mirrored fields that are framed by a touch of gold at the rim. Minor contact marks are consistent with the grade.

Satiny white luster and a strong strike for this issue.

Sharply struck design features with thick white frost are surrounded by deeply mirrored fields and produce a stunning ‘cameo’.  While the issue was produced in large quantity, exceptionally nice deep-mirror pieces are extremely elusive and desirable. Housed in an old green label holder.
