One of the HIGHEST GRADED 38-S Oregon Trail halves seen by either service, but it is doubtful many in this rarified grade level could have a spectacular look like this one! Only 6,006 examples were struck. Clearly this coin sat unmolested in an old album, the obverse has a peripheral earthy patina with hues of deep purple with olive-green, pale gold, and delicate tangerine-rose, before fading to a pearly silver in the center. The reverse has a bold, dramatic magenta-rose, sunset-orange, tangerine-ruby, and soft violet. The subtle differences in the tones as they blend and fade come out in a light as the satiny brilliance comes out. Sharply struck up with bold definition on both sides. The surfaces are essentially without flaw and the eye appeal is stunning! PCGS 19, NGC 26. There has not been a PCGS MS68 sold in over four years! The current Collectors Universe value is listed at $4,000 and the last non-CAC PCGS coin sold in 2015 for $7,050. Only a single MS68+ has graded finer and it has not ever sold in auction. This is a fantastic SUPERB GEM that belongs in a spectacular toned commem set and bidding will be fierce. Cert. Number 38970559 PCGS # 9350.00
