Lot 1847
1883 Hawaiian Half Dollar. PCGS graded MS-64 CAC Approved. In a new secure plus holder. Pop 55; 17 finer. Mostly untoned. A frosty specimen with inklings of a higher grade. The lustrous surface displays eruptions of silvery freshness throughout with faint shades of toning on both sides. Just as fully struck as others in the sale, there is never a hint of limitation in the detail at the beard and mustache, the shield central escutcheon (the latter of which often suffers when the dies do not impart the proper amount of force against the planchet). All in all a handsome offering (PCGS # 10991) .
Estimated Value $2,400 - 2,600.
The Forsythe Collection.
