1892-O 50C, PL MS (PCGS#86462)

Spring 2023 U.S. Coins Auction

Losbeschreibung: 1892-O Barber Half Dollar. MS-65 PL (PCGS). CAC. This captivating Gem represents a fleeting bidding opportunity for advanced Barber half dollar enthusiasts, for it is the only 1892-O certified in the PCGS PL category. Intensely reflective fields support frosty motifs, the interplay between the two delivering bold cameo contrast. Untoned apart from splashes of reddish-russet in isolated obverse peripheral areas. Saved in significant numbers as a first year Barber half dollar, the 1892-O is more readily obtainable in Mint State than a limited mintage of 390,000 pieces might imply. On the other hand, the issue is far scarcer than the 1892 in all grades, while as a Gem this New Orleans Mint date is rare even without a Prooflike finish. A stunning coin worthy of the strongest bids. Provenance: From the Abigail Collection, Part III. PCGS and CAC Population: just 1 in all grades in the PL category.
