1896 50C MS65 NGC. The 1896 is a popular type
<table><tr><td><table><tr><td>1896 50C MS65 NGC. The 1896 is a popular type coin with collectors as it is relatively available in lower grades and still has the charm of a 19th century date. However, it is surprisingly scarce in Gem condition as seen by the numbers of coins certified by the major services. NGC has only graded nine coins in MS65 with two finer (3/04), while PCGS has certified eight with four finer (2/04). This is a lovely MS65 example. Both sides are thoroughly brilliant with noticeable, flashy, semi-prooflike fields. The striking details show pinpoint definition on each side and there are no obvious or distracting surface impairments. <BR><BR><B>Important notice:</B> Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 200-250 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Since eBay bids are not shown to us until we open the lot on the floor, we treat those bids just like floor bids. In most cases the floor responds before the eBay bid is presented to us, due to Internet lag time, so for consistency we have made it a policy that floor bids are always considered first over tie eBay live bids. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through eBay Live carry a 20% Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid. <BR><BR><B>IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT ABOUT RESERVES:</B> Heritage now divulges all reserves on its web site 7 days before every auction. If you want to know whether the reserve on this lot has been met, and if not, what the reserve amount is, please visit this lot page on the HeritageCoin.com web site, or email: bid@HeritageGalleries.com </span></font></td></tr></table></td></tr></table>
