Description

Sharp 1880 Half Dollar, MS66 Prooflike
Finest of Six Prooflike Specimens


1880 50C MS66 Prooflike NGC. Despite its low mintage of 8,400 circulation strikes, a good number were saved, and hence are available to collectors today. Prooflike specimens are elusive, however; NGC has assigned this finish to only six examples, this particular Premium Gem being the finest. Silver-white surfaces exhibit striking field-motif contrast, which is even further enhanced by the crisp definition on the design elements. Both sides are impeccably preserved.
From The Joseph C. Thomas Collection.(Registry values: N2998)
