1882 50C MS (PCGS#6364)

Spring 2023 U.S. Coins Auction

详细说明: 1882 Liberty Seated Half Dollar. WB-101. MS-62 (PCGS). A wonderfully original example with mottled, iridescent toning in sandy-silver, olive-russet, reddish-copper and powder blue. Direct lighting calls forth decided reflective tendencies from the fields, the design elements heavily frosted in finish with razor sharp striking detail. Production of circulation strike half dollars amounted to only 4,400 coins in 1882, all of which are attributed to the Philadelphia Mint. With so many previously hoarded coins finding their way back into circulation after silver and paper currency reached parity in April 1876, the Treasury Department had no need to strike large quantities of new half dollars from 1879 through the end of the Liberty Seated series in 1891. Scarce to rare in all Mint State grades due to the limited mintage, the 1882 enjoys strong demand among advanced Liberty Seated half dollar collectors.
