1915-S Panama-Pacific Exposition $50. Round. MS-64 (NGC). CAC.，Offered is a lovely example of this highly regarded rarity among classic commemorative gold issues. Vivid deep gold surfaces are warmly and originally patinated and display full satin luster. Survivors of this type are seldom as nice as seen here, especially on the obverse, and this coin is sure to appeal to discerning bidders.
The obverse of the Panama-Pacific Exposition $50 gold coins depicts helmeted Athena surrounded by the legend UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and the denomination spelled out as FIFTY DOLLARS below. The date MCMXV is inscribed on Athenas shield, and the motto IN GOD WE TRUST is in the upper left field. The reverse design features a large owl facing nearly forward, perched on a thick pine branch, with large pine cones below and in the background. The motto E PLURIBUS UNUM is tucked into the field behind the owl. Matching the obverse is a round band at the perimeter which notes the name and place of the Exposition. The designer of these coins was Robert Aitken, a well known sculptor of the early 20th century.
The round Panama-Pacific Exposition $50s did not sell as well as their octagonal counterparts at the time of issue and many were melted. From the mintage of 1,500 pieces only 483 examples were sold, with the remaining 1,017 coins melted, making this the rarest collectable classic commemorative type. Elusive at all levels of preservation, the round examples are especially challenging to locate in problem free Choice and higher Mint State grades, as here. This example is certain to be a highlight in even the most advanced commemorative coin collection. This type is included in the popular reference <em>100 Greatest U.S. Coins</em> by Jeff Garrett and Ron Guth.，From the A.J. Vanderbilt Collection.，
