1851 Humbert Fifty Dollar, VF25
887 Thous., Reeded Edge, K-7

1851 $50 RE Humbert Fifty Dollar, Reeded Edge, 887 Thous. VF25 PCGS. K-7, R.7. While the Humbert fifty is a well-known and rare issue, this particular variety is scarcer than some of the other Humbert varieties. It is identified by the reverse style with its smaller concentric circles and outer ribbon away from the edge. The surfaces are typically abraded for a circulated coin of this size and weight, especially near the borders. Moderate wear is likewise noted, along with pebbly central obverse surfaces from a rusted die. The green-gold surfaces show a slight degree of reddish patina near some of the obverse devices. This piece is housed in an early-generation PCGS holder with a light-green label. Listed on page 410 of the 2024 Guide Book.
Ex: Denver Signature (Heritage, 8/2006), lot 5771.
