Lot Description

1868 Liberty Seated Half Dollar. Proof-65 Cameo (PCGS). The highly reflective mirror fields offset the frosty white devices. There is ample eye appeal, as the contrast invites study while the surfaces offer unusually nice quality. One of the finer survivors from a mintage of 600 pieces; only a few possess the Cameo contrast, and to date none have been certified in any grade with the Deep Cameo contrast by PCGS. PCGS# 86426. Provenance: From the Richard Jewell Collection. PCGS Population: 7; 1 finer (Proof-67 Cameo finest) within the Cameo designation.
