Superb Quality 1892 Columbian Half
With Deep, Original Toning

1892 50C Columbian MS67 NGC. The Columbian half has an enduring popularity with collectors. It also has distinctive toning that can truly be called "Columbian half toning." This is such a piece. The obverse has teal colored patina for the most part, while the reverse is reddish in the center with a blue margin. The fields are bright and give the coin added zest, but the fields are not quite prooflike as sometimes seen. An exceptional coin and free from the surface distractions normally associated with this issue.(Registry values: N4719)
