Lot Description

1864 Liberty Seated Half Dollar. WB-101. MS-62 (PCGS). A coin that really needs to be seen to be fully appreciated, both sides are toned in the most vivid array of multicolored patina around the peripheries. Fully struck with soft satin luster, the surfaces are minimally marked for the assigned grade and nearly in the Choice category. A thoroughly appealing survivor of this scarce and underrated Civil War era issue with a limited mintage of 379,100 circulation strikes. PCGS# 6311. NGC ID: 24JD. Provenance: From the Alexander Collection.
