Impressive 1905 PR68 Barber Half

1905 50C PR68 PCGS. CAC. What a difference one grading point makes. In PR66 both of the major services have certified 48 pieces of the 1905 proof half (or at least there have been that many "submission events"). In PR67, the combined numbers drop to 22. But in PR68 (the ultimate grade), a mere five coins have been so graded, and this the only PCGS PR68. The surfaces appear perfect. Even strong magnification fails to reveal any post-striking defects. The fields are deeply reflective and there is a slight amount of frost over the devices. Golden-brown toning is scattered irregularly over both obverse and reverse with streaks of brilliance evident here and there.(Registry values: N4719)
