Lot 1476
1858 Liberty Seated Half Dollar. NGC graded Proof 65. Lovely rainbow toning on both sides. Approx 300 proofs issued. Coin has a cameo effect. Fully radiant -- an important and rare feature for this not all that well preserved issue -- the surfaces display metallic iridescence whose pusling color is almost unnerving to view. The devices were struck smack on the dot with the required force by the dies leaving all everything clear-cut (including the stars), with not even an iota of softness as found on some Proof No Motto examples parading around in the same numerical grade. Pop 6; 4 finer. (PCGS # 6412) .
Estimated Value $15,000 - 16,000.
