Losbeschreibung

1846-O Liberty Seated Half Dollar. WB-10. Rarity-3. Medium Date. MS-61 (NGC). This handsome piece exhibits halos of warm steel-blue toning around the peripheries on both sides. The central obverse is a light steel-gray, the central reverse more vividly toned in silver-rose. Lustrous for the grade with a sharp strike and plenty of visual appeal. With a mintage of 2,304,000 pieces the 1846-O is readily available in circulated condition. As with most Liberty Seated half dollars from the 1840s, however, the 1846-O develops into a significant condition rarity in Mint State. A bidding opportunity for the advanced collector that is worthy of serious consideration. Provenance: From the Steve Studer Collection. NGC Census (Medium Date attribution only): 5; 12 finer (MS-66 finest). PCGS# 6255. NGC ID: 24H8. Click here for certification details from NGC.
