Lot Description

Outstanding target-like toning in cobalt blue, salmon-pink and champagne-apricot iridescence yields to virtual brilliance in the centers. This is a lovely coin, and it is also a technically superior one with a full strike, bold cameo contrast, and expertly preserved surfaces. Given that the 1898 is one of the most desirable Barber half dollar issues for Proof type purposes, this exquisite specimen will surely see spirited bidding when it comes up for auction.
