<B>1902 50C PR68 NGC.</B></I> Dramatic orange-gold, ocean-blue, and lime-green toning dominates this beautiful high grade proof Barber half. The flashy fields are as smooth as glass, and the strike is intricate aside from the usual slight merging of detail near the upper right shield corner. A prize for the connoisseur of splendidly patinated silver coinage. A scant 777 proofs were struck, which was the lowest production since 1898. Our auction records reveal only one other appearance of a PR68 1902 half, a Cameo specimen that realized $32,200 as lot 4282 in our 2005 FUN Signature.
