1859 50C PR66 CAM PCGS CAC
Virtually Pristine
Condition Rarity Proof 1859 Seated Half Dollar CAC Example
1859 50C PROOF, saw a mintage of 800 pieces. However this number was larger than the expected demand at the time and thus most were destroyed. Today most examples are graded PR-64 or lower, as such high grade 1859 50C commands a deep respect among collectors. Even more rare than the coin is CAMEO designated 1859 50c of which less than 5 unique ones are known beyond PR65 level. This 1859 50C PR66 CAMEO PCGS CAC is a pop 2 at PCGS and a pop 1 at CAC. There is one example certified finer at pcgs with no finer example approved than this example at CAC. This coin previously sold a decade ago for $16,100 with no other public sale which then ended up in the Perfection collection, one of the finest sets for proof liberty half. This coin now commands a PCGS Price Guide of $22,000.
The coin offered here despite being one of the finest certified 1859 50C PROOF and no doubt the finest CAC certified example also has remarkable surfaces. Deep Watery mirrors over exceptionally smooth surfaces without a single hairline or mark seen. No imperfection is noted over the original patina of blended copper-grey, blue-green and lavender tones which is depicted in a crescent iridescence that yield to areas of pale-silver tinting. A marvelous perfection indeed.
