Losbeschreibung

A very challenging Rarity-6+ Pattern half dollar, featuring William Barber's Seated Liberty design mated with the regular issue Proof reverse. Struck in copper with a plain edge. This amazing GEM ranks as one of the FINEST examples known. Reflective fields have an underlying brick red coloration, mellowing to a bluish-violet tinged brown patina. The strike is exceptionally bold and the surfaces are truly amazing! PCGS 3, NGC 0, CAC 2. This coin sold back in the 2017 ANA auction for $3,525 and the current PCGS Price Guide value is $5,750. Only a single PR66 RB is graded finer at PCGS, which has never sold in auction. A challenging Pattern issue that is very seldom offered. Good luck. Cert. Number 32601247 PCGS # 71182.00
