1860 50C, CAM PR (PCGS#86414)

November 2021 Baltimore U.S. Coins auction

详细说明: 1860 Liberty Seated Half Dollar. Proof-65 Cameo (PCGS). CAC. Gorgeous Gem surfaces are lightly toned in iridescent champagne-gold. Both sides are fully struck with smooth surfaces and pronounced cameo contrast to the finish. The Proof 1860 is much rarer than a mintage of 1,000 pieces might imply. Numismatics in the United States was still in its infancy in 1860, and the Mint's production of Proofs that year proved overly optimistic with regard to contemporary public demand. The result was that many coins remained unsold at year's end, and were eventually released into circulation. The present example has survived with exceptionally well preserved surfaces, virtually pristine, in fact. It is a coin that would do justice to the finest Proof type or date set. PCGS Population: 4; 11 finer in this category (Proof-67+ Cameo finest). PCGS# 86414. NGC ID: 27TK. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
