Striking PR68 1911 Half, Ex: Hugon

1911 50C PR68 NGC. Ex: Hugon. Only 543 proofs were struck for the 1911 Barber half issue, and it is hard to imagine a survivor with superior eye appeal to the present specimen. The obverse displays rich cobalt-blue toning with an irregular L-shaped swipe of rose and glistening champagne-gold in the upper right quadrant. The reverse patina is less variegated but just as impressive, with emerald-green fading to rose at the margin. An outstanding example of this later proof Barber issue, marvelous in both its technical and aesthetic aspects. Census: 7 in 68, 1 finer (6/08).(Registry values: N4719)
