Another “55” with luster and surfaces befitting a “58” or “62” bust half. Brilliant and untoned save for a thin streak at the front of Liberty’s cap. (NOT a drift mark.) Despite his distaste for dipped coins, John Albanese (CAC Owner) had to award this enticing piece a green sticker. Tim acquired it at a January 1999 Stack’s sale. Estimate: $1,200 to $1,500
