Lot 1068
1898 Barber Half Dollar. PCGS graded Proof 63. Slightly mottled colors on both sides, mostly on the high points. We suspect that this coin was lacquered in the past as there are wavy areas in the mirror fields, especially around the date and first couple of stars, as well as from the left tip of the eagles wing where a lint mark resides. Minor hairlines.
Estimated Value $450 - 550.
From the Benson collection and purchased from Ben's Stamp & Coin Co., on November 21, 1944 for $8.00.
