Attractive 1857 Half Dollar, PR64

1857 50C PR64 PCGS. The population of 1857 proof half dollars is probably about 50 coins, but this is only an estimate. PCGS and NGC have graded about 70 examples, an unknown number of which are likely resubmissions. This exquisitely struck near-Gem displays whispers of delicate golden toning, accented with hints of electric-blue and lavender at the margins. The location of a few minuscule obverse flecks appears to match those on the Louis E Eliasberg, Sr. specimen (Bowers and Merena/Stack's, 4/1997), lot 1970.
From The Sundance Collection.
