Description
1885 Half Dollar, PR65 Cameo
Boldly Contrasted
1885 50C PR65 Cameo NGC. A mere 930 proof half dollars were
produced at the Philadelphia Mint for 1885. Combined with a low
mintage of 5,200 business strikes, this is a challenging date in
any grade. Ron Guth suggests, "Approximately one in five examples
are Cameo Proofs." The present Gem proof features frosty motifs
that are boldly contrasted by deeply mirrored fields. Silvered
devices illuminate rose-gold iridescence with mottled blue and rust
on the rim. Census: 7 in 65 Cameo (1 in 65«), 26 finer (11/22).Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 27UL, PCGS# 86446, Greysheet# 6528)
Weight: 12.50 grams
Metal: 90% Silver, 10% Copper
