1962 Franklin Half Dollar. Proof-69 Ultra Cameo (NGC).With strong field to device contrast, virtually pristine surfaces and eye appeal to spare, this untoned specimen would make an impressive addition to the finest Proof type or date set. From a mintage of 3,218,019 pieces, the most generous in the Proof Franklin half dollar series. While the 1962 is widely regarded as a "type issue" among Proof Franklins, astute collectors are aware that Deep/Ultra Cameo examples are scarce in an absolute sense. In the finest grades, as here, such pieces are nothing short of rare. Remarkable quality and eye appeal that is sure to result in strong bidder competition.From the Rosie Collection.
