The May 2013 ANA National Money Show

详细说明: 1868 Liberty Seated Half Dollar. WB-101. MS-65 (PCGS). A frosty Gem half dollar with a mattelike appearance and exceptional eye appeal. The medium rose-gray surfaces exhibit a bold array of neon blue iridescence, particularly at the rims, and especially under a bright light source. The strike is strong save for a hint of weakness at the eagle's dexter talons, and unsightly marks of any magnitude are nowhere to be seen, even under low magnification. It is worthwhile to note the present coin is among the four finest grading events for the date at PCGS. Not a great rarity by any stretch of the imagination -- 417,600 pieces were struck -- but certainly a prime Condition Rarity in Mint State. PCGS has registered a grand total of just 27 grading events for the date, those pieces ranging from MS-60 to MS-67. The population of Mint State 1868 half dollars is fairly static with no hoards or caches known to us, so we don't expect many more Mint State examples will crowd the PCGS Population Report. If a gorgeous type Liberty Seated half dollar or a pleasing example of the date is in your future, may we suggest you take a long look at this Gem. It could pay off in spades.
