Owner Comments:

1899 50C PR68 Cameo NGC. Just two examples from this 19th century issue have been graded as PR68 Cameo, with the "Star" designation, by NGC, with none finer (10/07). This piece is one of the most beautiful Barber halves that we have ever examined. It is crisply struck with immaculate surfaces and jet-black fields that display illimitable reflectivity. The intense silver-white frost on Liberty's portrait is dazzling. The gorgeous, dark red-brown and turquoise-green peripheral toning on both sides also helps to increase the absolutely breathtaking eye appeal of the coin. This is one of those rare specimens that once seen are never forgotten.
