FROM THE BOYLSTON COLLECTION PART III A lovely GEM housed in a first generation holder, and a wonderful high grade survivor struck at the height of the Civil War. A bold luster is more satiny than brilliant, with warm, frosty gleam when rotated in a light. Sharply struck, the devices stand out nicely against the fields. Both obverse and reverse show parallel planchet rolling lines. A minor mark is seen on Liberty's thigh and there are a few other minor ticks scattered about, which keep it limited to the GEM grade assigned. A blush of toning on the reverse attests to the originality of this lovely MS65 1863 half dollar. PCGS 9, NGC 15. The last PCGS-graded example sold in April 2017 and realized $7,050. The current Collectors Universe value is listed at $8,500. Just a half dozen have ever graded higher, and nothing finer has been sold in auction since 2015. Bid accordingly! Cert. Number 2249751 PCGS # 6309
