| Description: |
About Uncirculated. Yellow-gold surfaces offer traces of original lustre, moderate
circulation with a wealth of bold detail. This desirable wartime date saw only 1,218
business strikes and 30 Proofs produced. Akers' research showed more Proofs appearing at
auction than highest grade business strikes. This date appears only 16 times in the
Dannreuther-Garrett 10-year auction record, which includes a single Mint State example and
nine AU pieces. Here is a coin whose rarity and importance are impossible to overstate and
which will be the keystone to some great collection of American Gold.
