Auction 382 | Lot 10218 » Half Dollars » Barber Half Dollars
1893 50C PR68★ Cameo NGC. Toned with vivid and complex colors seemingly from an artists palette as the hues blend tastefully over Liberty and her surrounding fields. Closely matched on the reverse, with a brighter splash of silver on the eagle's head which extends upward to the right from that point. Such colorful majesty commands attention, and the graders of NGC have awarded this numismatic masterpiece their coveted "star" award for eye appeal. This hard earned prize is coupled with the splendid grade also paid for by nearly perfect preservation by this stellar Barber half dollar. A review of the combined NGC and PCGS population reports finds a scant two coins graded as PR68 Cameo, but this coin has the added star for eye appeal. No Ultra Cameo coins have been graded of this date. Therefore, it is logical to conclude that this coin is the sole winner for the finest graded by either NGC or PCGS. If you demand the ultimate, then here it is, ready to move into your collection as soon as the bidding ceases. (PCGS# 86540)

1893 50C PR67 Cameo NGC. Only 793 proof halves were struck in 1893, and very few are known at the Superb level. As a cameo, only 10 other pieces have been so graded by NGC with two finer (5/05). This is a brilliant coin with mirror-like fields of unfathomable reflectivity. The devices are frosted and set up a stark white cameo contrast against the "blackness" in the fields. (PCGS# 86540)

1893 50C PR67 Cameo NGC. This is a brilliant coin with mirror-like fields of unfathomable reflectivity. The devices are frosted and set up a stark white cameo contrast against the "blackness" in the fields. From a mintage of 793 proofs, few survivors could complete with the appeal or technical superiority of this Superb specimen. Census: 11 in 67 Cameo, 2 finer (11/05). (PCGS# 86540)

1893 50C PR67 Cameo NGC. Ex: Eliasberg. In the 19th century, when a collector went to the trouble of acquiring modern coins directly from each of the mints in the year of issue, one could be well assured of receiving high quality pieces. That is what John Clapp did as far back as 1893. And as a result, because of the care he and (later) Louis Eliasberg gave these coins, they exist today in essentially the same condition as when Clapp received them in the year of issue. Only 792 proof halves were struck in 1893 and even though nine other pieces have been graded PR67 Cameo by NGC with one finer, it is difficult to imagine a more attractive, problem-free proof than this one. The fields are unfathomably deep in their mirrored reflectivity and the devices are quite heavily frosted, with the coin bordering on Deep Mirror status. Original, delicate golden and blue toning surrounds the peripheries with brilliant centers. The only contact mark worthy of note is a milling mark located approximately 2 mm. in front of Liberty's ear.
Purchased by J.M. Clapp directly from the Philadelphia Mint; John H. Clapp; Clapp estate; 1942, to Louis E. Eliasberg, Sr.; Eliasberg Collection (Bowers and Merena, 4/97), lot 2067. (PCGS# 86540)

1893 50C PR67 Cameo NGC. Deeply mirrored fields and frosty textured devices shine forth in the virtual absence of toning. With sharp-to-full striking detail and carefully preserved features, this Superb Gem would make a lovely addition to a type set of specimen coinage. Population: 8 in 67 Cameo, there is only one finer with this finish (4/04). (PCGS# 86540)
