- Lot Description
- BLACK AND WHITE CLARITY! The finest extant grade for the date and the quintessential example of a boldly contrasting, black and white, resplendent mirrored Franklin half dollar. Layer upon layer of thick, snowy white, mint frost looks like icing on a cake. The depth of clarity in the reflectivity of the surfaces leaves one speechless! Not a spot, tick, fleck or nick to be seen even with the most powerful magnification. PCGS 3, NGC 14. PCGS Price Guide lists the coin at $27,000. A piece sold for $6,600 in April 2021, but earlier sales reflect the true rarity with auction prices realized of $12,338 in our Regency sale March 2020 and $12,000 for another piece the same month and year. Sure to create a stir when it hits the auction block. A generous bid is the ticket that will take this sweet piece home! Cert. Number 4498292001 PCGS # 96702
