Description du lot

After striking more than 1.5 million coins in both 1853 and 1854, the New Orleans Mint delivered just 600,000 half dimes in 1855. This is the rarest issue in the short-lived Arrows subseries of 1853 to 1855, and examples are fairly scarce even in circulated grades. Offered is a boldly and handsomely toned Mint State survivor with blended rose and blue-gray patina. The strike is suitably bold at the focal features by the standards of the issuing mint, and there is plenty of soft mint luster to appreciate with the aid of direct lighting.
