- Lot Description
- Ex Denali Collection, as noted on the insert. A VERY RARE Standard Silver pattern half dollar! Standard Silver design with a single star on the tiara. Struck in aluminum with a reeded edge. Considered to be Rarity-7+, with just 4-6 known in all grades. This is another affordable, major rarity in the pattern series. Deeply reflective, brilliant mirrors beam from all over creating a bold and beautiful CAMEO contrast on both sides. Sharply struck and offering a bold eye appeal, this near-GEM's mirrors are deep and clear. PCGS 2, NGC 0, CAC 2. The other coin brought $3,173 in our July 2018 sale of the Steven Cook Collection. The current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $3,750. This is yet another affordable rarity with only a handful known in the pattern series. These are so undervalued it is crazy! Cert. Number 18374744 PCGS # 501859
