Losbeschreibung

1844 Liberty Seated Half Dollar. WB-9. Rarity-3. Repunched Date. MS-62 (PCGS). Richly original surfaces exhibit iridescent undertones of reddish-rose, orange-apricot and powder blue to dominant steel gray patina. While not a major rarity in Mint State for an 1840s half dollar, the 1844 is decidedly scarce at this level of preservation when viewed in the wider context of both the Liberty Seated series and U.S. numismatics as a whole. Provenance: From the E. Horatio Morgan Collection. Acquired from Jonathan K. Kern, date not recorded. Company tag with attribution notation included. PCGS# 6245. NGC ID: 24GZ.
