PCGS graded Proof 67+ Cameo.
CAC
APPROVED.
A dusting of pale patina is seen on both sides
and enhances already exceptional eye appeal. This coin is
fully struck throughout, the dies also providing a pro-
nounced satin finish to the devices that contrasts nicely
with mirror-finish fields. As expected of the Cameo Proof
67+ grade, there are no visible surfaces distractions or
hairlines on either side. Conditionally rare, and attractive in
all regards, this one is the single finest example thus far
seen at PCGS.
Pop 1; none finer at PCGS.

PCGS graded Proof 67.
CAC
APPROVED.
This gorgeous Superb Gem reveals abundant mul-
ticolored iridescence throughout, especially as the coin rotates
under a light. As dictated by the Superb grade rating, both sides
are equally attractive, their surfaces deeply reflective in finish
and free of any detracting blemishes. Fully struck, and very
impressive indeed.
Pop 5; 1 finer in 67+.

over each side.
