Description
1897 Barber Half, PR68 ★ Cameo
An Exceptional Proof Striking
1897 50C PR68 ★ Cameo NGC. NGC has certified three examples
of this 731-piece issue as PR68 ★ Cameo (11/10), and
interestingly, Heritage has offered all three. May 2003 saw our
first specimen, a stunning all-white coin, and the delicately toned
Eliasberg/Hugon example sold in January 2005. This wondrous piece
completes the triumvirate, and this is the second time we have
offered it at auction.Both sides exhibit fully struck, richly frosted devices and both sides are fully brilliant. The surfaces are practically flawless, as expected from the grade, and the overall eye appeal is beyond reproach. A stunning and worthy piece that showcases the vivid contrast found on the finest Cameo coins of the late 19th century.
