This 1903 $20 Liberty Head Double Eagle Proof, certified PCGS PR55, is a rare survivor from a mintage of just 158 proof struck that year. These early gold proofs were hand-polished and struck multiple times to achieve bold detail and reflective surfaces—traits still visible on this example despite light circulation.
The coin shows clear remnants of its original mirrored fields, strong strike definition, and warm golden patina. As a lightly circulated proof, it bridges rarity and accessibility—offering a genuine 19th-century gold proof at a fraction of higher-grade prices.
With fewer than 60 examples estimated to survive in all grades, this is a major opportunity for collectors of early U.S. gold, Liberty Head coinage, or rare proofs.
✅ PCGS PR55 – Certified Proof
✅ Sources say fewer than 60 survived

✅ Strong mirrors, pleasing patina
✅ Perfect for advanced collectors or investors
The proof mintage for the 1903 was the highest of any Liberty Head Double Eagle. However, the 1903 is certainly not the most common proof. Perhaps some of those minted were later melted or maybe the attrition rate for the 1903 was higher than usual.
