Lot Title:
|
1887 PF-64.
|
Description:
|
Philadelphia business strike mintages from half-dollars from 1879 - 1890 were so low that the barely used dies more often than not struck coins that looked just like proofs, and this is no exception. Many collectors could easily be fooled into buying this as a proof, though the soft details at Liberty's head and indistinct upper stars pronounce business strike status. Nonetheless, an amazingly beautiful coin that benefits from tan patina and honey-gold accents gathered at the rims.
This lot may contain an item not certified by ANACS, PCGS, or NGC. While Scotsman Auction Co. is typically conservative in our descriptions of items not certified by one of these companies, we cannot guarantee our grading estimation will match their grade. We highly recommend that collectors seeking items certified by a third-party grading service only bid on items that have already been certified. No lot can be returned because of a variance in judgment with regards to grade.
