Lot Description

1888 Seated Liberty Half Dollar. Proof-64 Cameo (NGC). Pale champagne hues adorn the reflective fields and frosty motifs, with the sharply rendered design elements sitting well against the mirrored fields. A die anomaly resembling the upright of a 1 can be seen in the rock immediately to the viewer's right of the shield point. One of 832 proofs of the date to roll off the presses in Philadelphia.
