- Vivid Choice EF 1852 August Humbert $50 Gold 1852 Augustus Humbert $50. Reeded Edge. K-11. Rarity-5. 887 THOUS., Target Reverse. EF-45 (NGC). We are pleased to be offering multiple desirable examples of Humbert's only 1852-dated $50 gold issue in this sale. The present lot features a handsome Choice EF survivor with wisps of enhancing reddish-rose iridescence to dominant deep honey-orange color. Central obverse striking softness is typical of the type, the detail otherwise impressively bold with both the date and peripheral legend fully legible. Accuracy alone compels us to mention a few shallow edge bruises, the surfaces uncommonly smooth in hand for a circulated $50 "slug" from Gold Rush California. Sure to catch the eye of advanced collectors. Provenance: From the Madrone Collection. PCGS# 10217. NGC ID: ANGT. Click here for certification details from NGC.
