Losbeschreibung

A very cool looking GEM Proof! Deep, darker violet-slate patina dominates the obverse, save for the lower half of Liberty and the base by the date, which lighten to a band of rainbow iridescence before dropping into a burst of blazing, original silver. The reverse is likewise deeply toned with teal and clover accents depending on the angle. The fields are smooth and sleek with ample reflection that can be seen when twirled. Very visually alluring to be sure! PCGS 19, NGC 17. This is the most recent example to sell in auction, realizing $2,468 in our May 2021 Regency Auction. The current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $4,000. Just a half dozen are graded higher. Worthy of a great set of Proof Seated half dollars. Cert. Number 34327359 PCGS # 6440
