1904 Gem Brilliant Proof despite a few wispy obverse facial hairlines. Here is an entirely honest, wholly original example of this proof issue. There is a blend of light to medium lavender-rose and golden toning that bathes either side of this needle-sharp, cameo mirror-proof specimen. Only 670 Proofs were coined of this date, from which a very limited percentage have survived in this condition.
Ex Winter Collection (Stack's, January 31- February 2, 1974, lot 1468).
