1898 Half Dollar, Lightly Toned PR68
Sole Example Slabbed by CACG in This Grade

1898 50C PR68 CACG. The proof 1898 Barber half dollar is a rarity in the lofty PR68 grade. NGC and PCGS report a handful of non-Cameo coins this fine, but only one of those is stickered by CAC. Similarly, this is the only coin in this grade slabbed by CACG in its own holder. Light lavender toning graces the mirrored fields, and the satiny devices exhibit sharp definition, even on the typically troublesome right shield corner and eagle's talons. No imperfections are seen. We handled the CAC-stickered coin in this grade -- slabbed by PCGS -- in our 2020 FUN Signature, where it realized $12,600 in that market. The present CACG-certified piece is at least that coins technical equal.(Registry values: N4719)
