1898 Proof Half Eagle

75 Proof half eagles dated 1898 were made for collectors, and it is likely that slightly more than half of these still exist. From a quality standpoint, there are not many half eagles of this design which are better produced than the 1898, making this date very sensible for type purposes. It is interesting to note that the cameo effect seen on 1898 Proof half eagles tends to be deeper than on most other dates of this type.

This is a dazzling borderline Gem which has the overall eye appeal found on many examples of this type which graded PR65. The obverse and the reverse show rich natural medium golden hues with a few specks of deeper color in the lower obverse fields. The depth of the mirrors is quite exceptional, and these offer sharp contrast to the very heavily frosted devices. A few stray hairlines in the left obverse field knock this coin from a higher grade while two small mint-made lintmarks can be seen in the right obverse field.
