Description du lot

1865 Liberty Seated Half Dime. MS-67 (NGC). Breathtakingly beautiful silver-white surfaces exhibit pronounced semi-prooflike contrast between frosty devices and mirrored fields. Sharply struck overall and expertly preserved in all regards. With silver coins having disappeared from commercial use in the East and Midwest early in the Civil War, it is little wonder that the Philadelphia Mint produced just 13,000 circulation strike half dimes in 1865. This issue is understandably scarce in an absolute sense, and as a Superb Gem it is an undeniable rarity from a condition standpoint. Outstanding! NGC Census: 5; 2 finer (MS-68 finest). PCGS# 4386. NGC ID: 234G. Click here for certification details from NGC.
