Description
1898 Half Dollar, PR68 Ultra Cameo
Condition Census Example
1898 50C PR68 Ultra Cameo NGC. A smallish mintage of 735
proof Barber half dollars was accomplished at the Philadelphia Mint
in 1898. The issue was well-produced and many examples seen have
sharp strikes and Cameo surfaces, but this magnificent PR68
specimen stands out, even among the numerous high-quality examples
known. The design elements of this remarkable piece are fully
struck, with intricate detail on Liberty's hair and the eagle's
talons. The virtually flawless brilliant surfaces include deeply
mirrored fields that contrast profoundly with the richly frosted
devices to create an intense cameo effect. Overall eye appeal is
simply terrific. Census: 6 in 68 Ultra Cameo (1 in 68+★ ), 0
finer (3/20).(Registry values: P1)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 24P2, PCGS# 96545, Greysheet# 6647)
Weight: 12.50 grams
Metal: 90% Silver, 10% Copper
