1904 $20, CA
1904 $20 PR61 Cameo PCGS. JD-1, High R.4. 1904 double eagle proofs offer similar characteristics as the 1903 proofs, with slightly better field-device contrast than earlier turn-of -the-century proofs. Significantly fewer 1904 proofs were struck -- only 98 proofs were produced, from which perhaps 50 to 65 examples exist today according to John Dannreuther's research. Collectors in 1904 preferred Cameo proofs to non-Cameo coins, and the same is true today. This well-contrasted Cameo displays flashy, minimally abraded fields for the assigned grade. Liberty's frosted portrait is is smooth and mark-free while the strike is full as expected for a well-made proof. Light hairlines pose only minor distraction. Population: 3 in 61 Cameo, 23 finer (3/24). HID10510052018 © 2024 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved
