Two 1942 NGC. Two 1942 NGC.
Lot Title: Two 1942 NGC.
Description: An interesting juxtaposition of a business strike and a proof 1942 Walking Liberty half, both in embossed NGC holders. The business strike coin seems conservatively graded by today's standards (many years after the embossed holders were last used), with lovely original surfaces and a good strike. The proof coin is close to pristine, with very trivial contact marks across Liberty's portrait, and perceptible cameo contrast. A lovely two coin lot.
Low Estimate: $575.00

1942 NGC PF-65.
Ozarks Proof Singles Estate. Discernible cameo contrast should make this a premium 1942 proof, along with impeccable vintage surfaces. Subtle but very attractive toning seals the deal for this gem.
693The Midwest Summer Sale 2014 on 07/18/2014$500.00
1942 NGC PF-66.
Ozarks Proof Singles Estate. Fabulous cameo contrast on the obverse should have warranted at least some "star" consideration from NGC. C'mon, guys! As befits the grade, the mirrors are as deep...

1942 NGC PF-66 CAMEO.
Ozarks Proof Singles Estate. NGC's stringent and very difficult "cameo" designation practically never gets bestowed upon Walking Liberty half-dollars, but when it does happen, odds are the date will...

1942 NGC PF-66.
A deep monogram gives reassurances that this pristine proof half-dollar was struck off of relatively new dies, and that helps explain the explosive details seen everywhere. Just the very center of...

1942 NGC PF-67, and a 1963 Franklin half-dollar NGC PF-67.
From Maxine's Proof Set Collection. NGC has implemented the lofty PF-67 assessment for this pair of brilliant, gleaming proof half-dollars, and both are outstanding at that grade level. 1942 has a...

1942 NGC PF-65.
Light toast-gold patina snuggles up against the obverse devices, leaving the balance of the surfaces relatively free from toning, and this lends an assist to the already obvious cameo contrast....

1942 PF-65 Cameo.
A liquid-silver gem that offers quite a bit more cameo than is typically seen of the type. Handsome toast-gold tone bleeds slightly into the fields from the rims, framing the obverse in very...

1942 PCGS MS-66.
Simply exquisite silky-jade toning is lovingly draped across the lower obverse, and the marvelous overall patina provides plush, glistening jeweled texture to the pristine surfaces. 1942 is instantly...

1942 NGC PF-65.
Only modest contrast can be seen for this nearly pristine coin, but the clarity of the mirrors and the lightly textured devices present an attractive appearance. The strike seems a little indifferent...

1942 PCGS PF-65.
Pristine surfaces provide outstanding clarity and much cameo effect on the obverse of this arresting 1942 proof half. Not a speck of tone can be seen anywhere, permitting tremendous reflectivity...
816The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/24/2009$500.00
1942 PCGS PF-66.
Limited haze can be seen across most of the reverse and much of the obverse, though the underlying surface brilliance is obvious throughout. A stripe of grey tone streaks across the upper reverse. ...

1942 NGC PF-67.
Cameo contrast is eagerly sought from proof Walking Liberty half-dollars, as it is such a rare occurrence with these marvelous coins. This stunning gem offers at least some such contrast, and adding...

1942 PF-64.
This is a brilliant, problem-free example. The rims have just a hint of golden brown. The surfaces are clean and unmarred. A very nice Proof type coin.

1942 PCGS PF-67.
Jewellike luster radiates elegantly throughout the obverse fields of this mostly white coin, while the reverse luster is a tad more subdued, though certainly well represented. As if pinched at one...

1942 NGC MS-65 and 1944 NGC MS-65.
Both of these Philadelphia specimens radiate a dazzling brilliancy. The 1942 is more velvetlike in aspect, while the 1944 issue glistens. The perceived marks are minuscule and widely dispersed. ...
