50¢ 1910 Gem Brilliant Proof. Russet-gold, rose, and subtle blue iridescence intermingle over a glassy-mirrored obverse. The reverse exhibits shades of very handsome olive-golden toning. Close examination with a strong glass reveals some ever so trivial obverse facial slide marks beneath the toning. These slide marks, however, are totally undetectable to the naked eye, and hardly warrant even the slightest mention. A highly desirable coin, particularly in light of its outstanding original color and impressive underlying surface quality.
