Description
1955 Half Dollar, PR69 Ultra Cameo
The Ultimate Registry Set Candidate
1955 50C PR69 Ultra Cameo NGC. Ex: Everest Collection.
Although a few 1955 Superb Gem Ultra Cameo proofs are known, only
eight such pieces earn the coveted PR69 Ultra Cameo grade (3/21).
This example appears to be the plate coin in Rick Tomaska's
Guide Book to Franklin & Kennedy Half Dollars. Intense
contrast exists between nearly flawless fields and frost-white
devices, with the mirrored fields jet black when viewed at an
angle. Overall, the 1955 proofs are rare with this contrast level
and often have hairlines from Mint packaging that precludes a high
numeric grade. This splendid example excels in both regards, tied
for the Condition Census top at NGC..No PCGS Deep Cameo examples of
comparable grade are reported as of (3/21). We have never offered
one so certified until now.From The Estate of Richard Kay. (Registry values: N4719)
