1895 50C, CAM PR (PCGS#86542)

The March 2012 Baltimore Auction

详细说明: 1895 Barber Half Dollar. Proof-68 Cameo (PCGS). CAC. A gorgeous Gem Proof example of the date by any standard. Boldly frosted devices and deeply mirrored fields form a contrast that is, literally, second to none in appearance within the PCGS Cameo Proof designation for the date. Nearly complete mint brilliance throughout, but with a crisp splash of soft sunset orange at the upper obverse rim, and with a whisper of the same across the reverse. Needle-sharp, and every bit the Gem the holder proclaims it to be. Definitely of Registry Set quality. Numismatic Reflections by Q. David Bowers This lovely Gem is already a winner in the PCGS Registry Set competition. As such it will probably have a magnetic attraction for those involved in this exciting pursuit. Proof Barber halves are very collectible, and it is an interesting challenge to put together a set of each date from 1892 to 1915. The present piece would certainly be a highlight in such a group.
