- Impressive 1851 K-5 Humbert $50
1851 Augustus Humbert $50. Reeded Edge. K-5. Rarity-5-. 880 THOUS., Target Reverse. EF-45 (NGC).
If the About Uncirculated example in the preceding lot proves elusive, this nearly equivalent Choice EF also represents a significant find for the collector seeking an example of the 1851 Kagin-5 Humbert $50. Enhancing blushes of reddish-rose iridescence are more prevalent on the obverse, both sides with dominant color in deep honey-olive. A few minor edge disturbances and some scattered marks are typical of the type, especially at the assigned grade level, and none are worthy of undue concern. The upper and left obverse borders are a bit soft, but the peripheral legend on that side is near-fully legible. Otherwise boldly struck for having seen light commercial use, this handsome piece would serve with distinction in any cabinet.
Provenance: From the Madrone Collection.
PCGS# 10211. NGC ID: ANH8.
