Lot Description

FROM THE BOYLSTON COLLECTION PART III Fewer than one million half dollars were struck in San Francisco at the start of the Civil War, and most went into circulation. A rich frosty luster glows on the untoned silver surfaces. Generally well struck from rusted dies. There are just a few minor marks and ticks that keep this from a full CHOICE grade. This is a very handsome piece. PCGS 13, NGC 8. The most recent sold in February 2020 for $1,560 and the current PCGS Price Guide value is $2,000. We sold three finer, a 63 in Boylston 1, a 64 CAC in the BigMo Collection, and a 66 from the Valley Collection in September 2016 that realized a world record price. Good luck. Cert.
