<Our item number 108566><B>1901 &#36;5 Liberty. PCGS graded Proof 66 Deep Cameo.</B> This piece is set in PCGS holder 50146508. Well struck with rich golden toning. A strikingly beautiful, toned Proof specimen that was produced in very limited numbers, 140 pieces to be exact, and has survived essentially as it was struck during the early months of the last century. Merely a wisp of orange patina has collected on the obverse since that time, only a slight change and the only one that would differentiate from the remarkable quality and appearance that would be seen when it came off the dies some 106 years ago. The devices are nicely frosted on each side and, with the unrestricted depth of mirrors in the fields, the coin displays a very attractive two-toned look. This superlative Proof half eagle represents quality that could scarcely be bettered; moreover, it is truly a coin worthy of runaway potential. Only 140 proofs struck. <B>Pop 1: Finest Deep Cameo graded at PCGS for this date</B> <B>&#40;PCGS # 98496&#41 ;</B>. <BR>Estimated Value &#36;35,000-40,000. <BR><BR>Our item number 108566<BR><IMAGES><P ALIGN="CENTER"><IMG SRC="http://goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/39jpegs/108566.jpg"> <BR><IMG SRC="http://goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/39jpegs/108566N2.jpg"> </P></IMAGES>
