Description
Fantastic Select Proof 1850 Seated Half
1850 50C PR63 NGC. An even finer example of this rarity than the previous lot. The deeply toned surfaces flash rose-violet and aqua-green when the coin is rotated under a light. The right obverse field has a planchet flaw, as struck. A series of tiny contact marks are located in the upper right reverse field. The portrait has consistent and extensive die rust as well as a number of other faint die flaws, as struck. The proof 1850 half dollar is a rarity, and the use of multiple die pairs to strike the issue only deepens its mystery. Census: 1 in 63, 3 finer (6/08).Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 27TC, PCGS# 6394, GSID# 6415)
Metal: 90% Silver, 10% Copper
Weight: 13.36 grams
ASW: 0.42oz
