Close examination reveals a pair of well concealed obverse hairlines beneath the toning on Liberty's cheek, otherwise this majestic piece would easily attain the designation of strong Gem. The obverse exhibits rich shades of lavender, lilac, and rose iridescence. Splashes of champagne toning enhance the boldly glittering reverse. Proof coinage for each of the four silver denominations of this date was limited to only 731 pieces.
