What an honor it is for LRCA to offer this stunning beauty! This is such an impressive SUPERB GEM Matte Proof Half Eagle. Tied for second FINEST graded, and one look at this AMAZING coin, and you can easily see why! This is a very RARE date, from an original mintage of only 125, and perhaps today, around 60-75 survive in all grades. Keep in mind that at least three examples are permanently impounded in museum collections. The matte surfaces are wonderful with their fine, sand blast texture; the thousands of tiny facets sparkle when they are hit by the light. It is also totally original showing off a great, olive gold color with rich tan overtones. This is not your typical bright yellow conserved example that has lost all of its original character. Every detail is sharply struck and the eye appeal cannot be beat. For the advanced collector of 20th century gold, this amazing coin presents a very rare bidding opportunity. PCGS 2, NGC 5, CAC 2. ONLY a single PCGS PR67 CAC has ever sold in auction, realizing $111,625 in November 2015. There is a single PCGS PR68 CAC that sold in March 2017 for nearly $250,000. This coin has a SUPERB stunning look, that will delight even the most jaded of collectors--we have had a hard time putting it down--you will too! After 30+ years of operations, the fact PCGS has only graded two examples this high and one finer speaks volumes to the rarity of this date and the infrequency they appear in auction! Congratulations to the winning bidder, you just bought an amazing gold rarity! Cert. Number 25343943 PCGS # 8545
