1868 Liberty Seated Half Dollar. Proof-67 Ultra Cameo (NGC). An exquisite specimen, and a real numismatic treasure, this spectacular coin represents one of only two grading events for the Proof 1868 half dollar in the Deep/Ultra Cameo category at PCGS and NGC. The surfaces are fully untoned with a bright silver-white appearance that allows ready appreciation of dazzling field to device contrast. There are no blemishes of note, as befits the assigned numeric grade, and the strike is razor sharp at even the most intricate design elements. The Proof 1868 half dollar presents an incredible challenge at the highest levels. 600 were struck shortly after the end of the Civil War and only about 500 remain for collectors in all conditions. The vast majority of these are in grades of Proof-65 or lower and very few exhibit any degree of contrast. At NGC Proof-67 Ultra Cameo, this is one of the most exceptional examples certified and would serve as a highlight in even the finest numismatic cabinet. PCGS# 96426. NGC ID: 27U3. NGC Census: just 2 in all grades in the Ultra Cameo category, both Proof-67 UCAM. There are no Deep Cameo specimens listed at PCGS. From the Arlington Collection. Earlier from our (Bowers and Merenas) Las Vegas Auction of October 2006, lot 5424.
