- Breathtaking 1886 Proof Half Dollar
1886 Liberty Seated Half Dollar. Proof-67+ (PCGS). CAC.
This remarkable Proof 1886 half dollar is beautifully toned in a dominant blend of olive-copper and mauve-gray. More vivid highlights of cobalt blue, salmon pink and antique gold are largely confined to the peripheries. Both sides are nearly pristine and display razor sharp detail. Obviously well cared for since the year of issue, and likely stored in the same original holder for much of its existence, this specimen is sure to attract strong bids from discerning collectors.
A popular and eagerly sought Liberty Seated half dollar in all grades, the 1886 has a combined mintage of just 5,886 Proofs and circulation strikes. The Proofs, of which 886 pieces were produced, are often selected for inclusion in high grade date sets, for such pieces are more readily obtainable than their Mint State counterparts. On the other hand, few survivors are in as high a grade as the present Superb Gem. An undeniable condition rarity that also offers exceptional visual appeal.
PCGS Population: 1; 1 finer in this category (Proof-68). CAC Population: 5; 1. The former total includes coins certified both Proof-67 and Proof-67+, and by both PCGS and NGC.
PCGS# 6447. NGC ID: 27UM.
