Lot Description

1887 Liberty Seated Half Dollar. WB-101. MS-66 (NGC). This 1887 half dollar is well struck with glittering reflective luster in the fields.There is attractive iridescent red and blue hues at the rims and a more centralized champagne-red tint over the central devices. Only 5,000 circulation strikes were originally minted for this issue. Presently, NGC has certified just 10 pieces in MS-66 and a mere four finer. PCGS# 6369. Provenance: From the Richard Jewell Collection.
