Losbeschreibung

1859-S Liberty Seated Half Dollar. WB-102, Die Pair WB-6. Rarity-3. Medium S. MS-65 (NGC). This Gem 1859-S has light golden toning and excellent eye appeal overall. It is struck from lightly clashed dies, with bold detail definition in all areas. Despite a mintage of 566,000 pieces, comparatively few Mint States examples were set aside at the time of issue, and Gem-quality pieces as offered here are much rarer still. The specimen offered here ranks among the finest ever certified by NGC. PCGS# 6298. NGC: 3; 2 finer (MS-68 finest).
