50C 1900S PCGS MS65

We’ve seen 97 & 98-Os in full prooflike, but NEVER a 1900. There is no question the mirrors are FULLY prooflike! The quality is HIGH END!

At first and second glance this coin looks like a 1900 Proof. Only the S mint mark proves it’s not a proof. The mirrors are super deep (at least 4″+) and have remarkable clarity. You do not have to imagine them or look hard to see them. You can only see a few ticks and giggles with a strong glass, and they are very minor (as are some light die polishing lines). We do believe this coin is struck from rusted dies since you can see tiny imperfections with a strong glass. Still, there are more problems on the holder than the coin. Both sides are untoned. Miss Liberty and the details are frosted and have have extra strong strikes. There is actually light cameo contrast as well. The eye appeal is phenomenal!

PCGS 7, NGC 5, CAC 3. PCGS has only graded four higher while CAC has only one coin higher. One of these sold 1/13 in the Heritage sale for $6,463.00. These are not easy to find coins. We paid much more than that price as this coin is virtually a DMPL! Opportunity doesn’t just knock, it ROCKS loud here for the serious MS Barber Collector. We don’t think you will ever see another 1900s like this!
