1889 NGC MS-64. 1889 NGC MS-64.
Lot Title: 1889 NGC MS-64.
Description: Classic Mustang Collection, Mintage: 12,000. Low-mintage half-dollars struck during the 1880s almost always show as prooflike coins, and frankly, a satin-luster example like this is quite a find for the collector who wants all his coins to match up to lustrous, circulation-strike characteristics. On top of that, this one appears flat-out undergraded at MS-64, as the fields show no distractions at all, and both sides exhibit uninhibited, full blazing mint luster. Add to that the usual razor-sharp definition always seen, and you have a coin that has "potential" written all over it. (PCGS# 006371)

A low mintage issue of just 12,711 for this third to last date of the series. Enhancing intertwined hues of rose and blue bathe its glowing, lustrous surfaces. Light hairlines and a few...

Better get out the sunglasses before looking at this coin as the reflectivity is so intense, direct viewing may cause damage to your eye. Rich russet and blue toning is scattered around the...
