1904 Gem Brilliant Proof. Splendid Cameo quality gives this example of a Proof mintage of 670 the beauty of Superb. The exciting near-perfection of this glittering Gem makes it a wonderful exception to the late Walter Breen's repeated complaint about Proofs of this era, ''most specimens have been cleaned to death.'' Finding a finer specimen would certainly be a major undertaking.
