Description
Highly Attractive 1860 Half Dollar
PR67 Cameo
1860 50C PR67 Cameo NGC. A generous 1,000 proof half dollars
were struck in 1860. As might be expected, NGC and PCGS have
certified a fair number of pieces. Coins with a Cameo finish are
few and far between, however. Indeed, the two services have graded
only 24 Cameo specimens.This Superb Gem is one of only five Cameos so graded, with none finer. Light golden-orange patina frames the obverse periphery, while the reverse shows a mixture of electric-blue and purple at the margins, ceding to light golden-orange on the remaining areas. The design elements are lightly frosted and sharply struck, and are nicely highlighted by the mirrored fields. An occasional faint hairline in the fields does not detract in the least from the coin's overall eye appeal. Census: 4 in 67 Cameo, 0 finer (3/09).
