Extraordinary 1869 Standard Silver Half in Silver, PR65
Judd-749, Ex: Bass

1869 50C Standard Silver Half Dollar, Judd-749, Pollock-832, High R.6, PR65 PCGS. Ex: H.W. Bass, Jr. Standard Silver Design B: Liberty wears a diadem inscribed LIBERTY with her hair tied in a bun as more fully described for Judd-702. Struck in silver with a plain edge. This is an impressive and highly attractive Gem proof with deeply mirrored fields and heavy cameo contrast. It should be reexamined by PCGS for just such a designation, either Cameo or Deep Cameo. Both sides are brilliant and untoned with light ivory color.
