Proof 1899 double eagles are very rare in with only an occasional offering today. This is one of the few we have offered for sale at public auction in the past ten years with such richly frosted cameo devices. Only 84 proofs were struck and the estimates of survivors varies all over the place. Akers estimated some 25 years ago that perhaps 25-30 pieces were extant, while Breen (1988) places the number between 35-40 coins. From our experience, and judging from the total number of Proofs certified in all grades, we believe the true figure may well lie between those two estimate ranges.
This is an exceptional, deeply mirrored, beautifully frosted, cameo Proof 65 with eye appeal that goes even further than the stated grade. A true connoisseur's coin!
