1900 Liberty Head Eagle. Proof-66 Ultra Cameo (NGC).，An absolute and condition rarity of the first order that belongs in an advanced gold cabinet. Both sides of this exquisite specimen are fully struck with vivid golden-orange patina and strong field to device contrast. A loupe reveals the finely texture "orange peel" finish in the fields that advanced Proof gold collectors find so appealing. On the other hand, not even the closest visual inspection calls forth a grade-limiting or otherwise significant blemish. Virtually pristine, in fact, and worthy of the strongest bids.<p>Popular with collectors then and now as a turn of the century issue, the 1900 has the highest mintage in the Proof Liberty Head eagle series with 120 pieces produced. Of course, that an issue with just 120 coins struck has the highest mintage for its type confirms the awesome rarity of Proof Liberty Head gold coinage as a group. Not all Proof 1900 eagles struck were sold to contemporary collectors, those that were not being destroyed in the Mint through melting. This is one of perhaps just 50 to 65 specimens believed extant, and it is a coin that will please even the most discerning numismatist.，，
