<B>1897 $5 MS62 Prooflike NGC.</B></I> The Mint in 1897 struck 867,800 business strike half eagles, a huge increase from the previous year, while it produced only a token number of quarter eagles. The pinkish-gold, radiant fields contrast nicely against the deeply frosted devices. This is the highest-graded Prooflike example certified at NGC, and one of only two Mint State Prooflike examples (4/07).<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
