1890 Liberty Seated Half Dollar. Proof-67 (PCGS). CAC.Really a lovely example, we note warm cabinet toning in copper-russet, olive-gold and steel-blue to silky smooth surfaces. Vivid undertones flash into view at more direct lighting angles, as does a boldly mirrored finish in the fields. The penultimate Proof Liberty Seated half dollar, the 1890 has a mintage of 590 pieces. This is one of the lowest totals for a half dollar of the Motto design type, although the rate of survival is above average given the popularity that Proof coinage enjoyed with contemporary collectors during the later years of this series. The present example is far finer than the typically offered survivor, and it is of even further desirability given the mintage (12,000 pieces) of the associated circulation strike. A fabulous specimen that is sure to sell for a premium price.PCGS# 6451.
