Lot 933		1892 Columbian Half Dollar. NGC graded MS-65. One of those sleeper dates in gem. When these were struck for the Columbian Exposition in Chicago many visitors to the fair took home a couple of these as souvenirs.

This one somehow survived in gem condition, still untoned and boasting the mint-fresh luster that gives the coin great eye-appeal. Scarce in this grade. View details	Realized $529
