1844-O Liberty Seated Half Dollar. WB-22, FS-301. Rarity-4. Doubled Date, Medium O. Good-4 (PCGS). CAC. A warmly and evenly toned example awash in coppery-mauve patina, flints of olive-charcoal are also evident in the protected areas around some of the design elements. All devices are fully outlined and readily appreciable, the wide repunching to the date plainly evident in the field between the base of Liberty's rock and the top of the primary digits. This is one of the clearest and most popular varieties in the entire Liberty Seated half dollar series of 1839 to 1891, represented here by an originally and well preserved Good quality example.
