Lot 1090
1882 Liberty Seated Half Dollar. PCGS graded Proof 67. 1,100 pieces struck. Golden, lavender, and bluish green hues blanket both sides. A gorgeous Superb Gem example. Not only is this coin a wonder of preservation with perfect surfaces (as nearly as we can tell), but it is also a marvel in terms of original toning. What is nicest to see is that both sides display matched hues that radiate outward from a lighter center to the most beautiful saturated shades of iridescence at the rim. One would be hard put to find a sharper Proof specimen of a popular low-mintage issue like this, with not even a smidgen of softness on the stars, legends and main devices. Pop 2; none finer at PCGS (PCGS # 6443) .
Estimated Value $6,000 - 6,500.
