1893 Barber Half Dollar (50c)

Brilliant and frosty with strong cartwheel luster flashing across both sides, this example shows mostly white surfaces with a bit of gold and light blue sprinkled throughout. The skin is pleasingly original and the strike is crisp, while a trivial ticks on the cheek caps it just short of 65. Eye appeal is undeniably high for the assigned grade. Approved by CAC and housed in a PCGS gold shield holder, this specimen has that borderline gem look that pops in hand.
