Boba Debt, so you have both, nice! I don't see a lot of difference in the shine between the two.

GF - You won't be disappointed; it's an amazing coin, and the type 2 reverse really pops with this finish.

The matte field of the 2026 is less granular, but the main difference lies in the devices and portraits.
The 2006 has a true proof finish, while the 2026 is better than a business strike but doesn't come close to the level of a proof.

So in hand the differences are obvious.

Thanks to others for posting pics of theirs. My payment problem worked out okay. Mine arrived today. I see no flaws with 10x loupe so I'm happy. It looks great in my opinion. Here is pic of mine. I don't have a good coin camera, just use my phone. I take pics of my coins and put them all in a photos folder. The shine on Liberty and eagle is definately less than a reverse proof. It's kind of dumb they used image of a proof coin on the box and COA. It will be interesting to see final mintages of the proof and enhanced versions. I returned the proof version due to some defects in the field. Now that I have the enhanced I'd rather have it anyway.  Edited by livingwater

Here are the latest sales of the 1 oz gold enhanced and proof. Looks like they already made/sold most of the enhanced 7.5K mintage limit. If demand is there and if lower spot prices, they'll make more proofs up to the 25K mintage limit. The mint lowered their prices yesterday I think $100.   Edited by livingwater
