Gorgeous plain edge example struck in medal alignment. Deep mirror fields with heavily frosted devices. An outstanding cameo appearance. In specimen there are only about a half dozen pieces known and only 1 graded higher than this one. Die polishing, characteristic of these early proof issues should not be confused as being hairlines. The coin has been lacquered so under magnification appears to have light disturbances on the surface. These early specimen gold pieces are among the most beautiful coins ever struck.
