Description
Uncirculated Details 1915-S
Panama-Pacific Fifty
1915-S $50 Panama-Pacific 50 Dollar Octagonal--Scratches--NGC.
Unc Details. In the broad range of souvenirs offered at the
Panama-Pacific International Exposition, the fifty dollar gold
coins--sold at twice their face value--surely were among the most
expensive. Only a relative handful of attendees and associates were
able to afford them, and just 645 examples of the more popular
octagonal variety sold. Today, survivors are enduring and popular
collectibles. Though this piece shows light pinscratches on the
devices, and the reverse exhibits a pair of flaws more akin to
staple scratches, the lustrous yellow-gold surfaces are unworn, and
the obverse displays well with few significant abrasions.From The Cliff Street Collection.(Registry values: P7)
