$50 1851 887 HUMBERT PCGS AU55

We LOVE these BIG beautiful coins. Sadly so many have either been messed with or are just horribly banged up we have to pass on them. This was one piece that was so nice we could not pass up!

First thing we look for on these pieces is the originality. We do not see any wiping marks, dipping reside, or putty. The surfaces do have a few teenie ticks (on the obverse) and scattered light lines, however NONE are seriously distracting. To the naked eye the coin appears fairly clean. Most important, ALL of the details are extra sharp in strike. We do NOT have to make excuses for any flatness. The reverse has almost NO ticks to distract the eye from the cool pattern. Even the rims are sharp and there are NO bumps or problems. The eye appeal is awesome!

PCGS 6, NGC 26. The last one of these to sell at a major auction brought $63,250.00 11/06 Stacks. This coin has been off the market for a long time. It is housed in an old green tag holder. Opportunity does not just knock here-it sends up fireworks!
