Owner's Description

This coin has fantastic proof-like fields and is virtually flaw free. It is remarkable how much this coin has soared in value. I acquired this coin sealed in the plastic for a hefty premium at the time of purchase. This is the rarest MS coin from 1/20 - 1 ounce (excluding date varieties). 1998 1/2 ounce pandas are usually best left in the plastic unless you are fairly certain they will grade up to a MS69. Over 1/3 of them do not grade out.
