Lot 968
1897-O Barber Half Dollar. PCGS graded MS-64 CAC Approved. Mostly white with a hint of light gold tone. A beautiful silver-fresh coin with no objectionable marks or blemishes on Liberty's cheek or in the fields. As soon as one sees the frosted luster, it comes as no surprise everything is razor-sharp on all devices. Later New Orleans issues wouldn't be so carefully made (compare to dates such as 1906-1908, which are almost always mushy). Impressive as this coin is, we expect to see also an impressive show of bids when it crosses the block. Pop 17; 20 finer; 14 in 65; 3 in 66; 2 in 67; 1 in 68. (PCGS # 6478) .
Estimated Value $4,500 - 5,000.
