1883 Hawaiian Pattern Half Dollar M-2CPC-3 Copper. . Medcalf-Russell 2CPC-3. NGC graded Proof 67+ Star RB CAC Approved. The finest known. Lovely shades of red colors. Pop 1; none finer at NGC. The only example graded at this service in red & brown. A wonderful red and brown example. 18 struck. Ex Dagget and our September 2009 sale. Magnificent fiery red to golden toning dominates both sides of this spectacular Gem. Identifiers include a tiny toning dot in the hair in line with the upright of the I in KALAKAUA I, also another micro-dot below the truncation near the left side. When carefully viewed at all angles, the full-mirror fields are seen to glisten with a watery effect while an array of subtle amber, rose, and lilac-red hues are revealed. Owing to a razor-sharp strike, the powerfully imparted details are vivid even under the strongest, most revealing magnifying glass. The undisputed rarity of this issue explains why examples seldom come on the market, even in low Proof grades. In fact, this specimen represents the Finest appearance of a copper pattern Proof half dollar -- evidence that it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and the finest example to be auctioned by our firm since its inception! Pop 1; the only red & brown example graded at NGC. The obverse of all the Hawaiian coins of 1883 is the same and features a head of King Kalakaua facing right. The half dollar has on its reverse the arms without the mantle seen on the one dollar. The legend is the same, but instead of 1 is the fraction one-half, and below, HAPALUA, signifying half-dollar. The eight stripes in quarters 1 and 4 of the shield refer to the eight inhabited islands at the time of issue. (Kahoolawe has since been put off-limits by the U.S. government due to its former use as a bombing range by the military after WWII and lately as a protected nature reserve -- irony of ironies! -- with unexploded ordnance still scattered around the site. The privately owned island of Niihau known to the locals as "The Forbidden Island" restricts visitors.). Estimated Value $35,000 - 40,000. The Forsythe Collection.
