硬币介绍

Fascination with what persons perceived as a new century (this wouldn't actually arrive until 1901) prompted higher than usual sales of proofs this year.

Gems are relatively plentiful for this date, and a good number of Cameo pieces have been certified, yet Ultra Cameo examples are exceedingly rare. It appears that the new hubs for this coin type were adopted after completion of the proof mintage, which typically occurred early in the year. No proofs are known having the Type 2 obverse or the Type 3 reverse, though they are found on currency strikes of this date.阅读更多
