Lot 445
1868 Liberty Seated Half Dime. PCGS graded Proof 67. Lovely gold, green and blue toning. 600 struck. This lovely Superb Gem is blazing with reflective luster underneath the iridescent color, but we are hard pressed to find even a single carbon fleck or visible hairline on either side. Having that in mind for the mint originality, we see as well a full, bold transfer from die to planchet notable in all the main devices along with the letters in the legends and a bold date. A glorious specimen. After viewing this piece, unsuccessful bidders in the sale will sense the injustice of fate in letting this one get away from them! Maybe next time. Pop 2; none finer at PCGS. (PCGS # 4451) .
Estimated Value $3,000 - 3,300.
