- 1867 Liberty Seated Half Dollar. WB-101. MS-64 (PCGS).
Captivating frosty to modestly semi-prooflike surfaces are enhanced by iridescent champagne-pink peripheral highlights on this lovely, sharply struck, fully Choice half dollar. The early Reconstruction era 1867 half dollar continues the story of the Philadelphia Mint's circulation strike issues during most of the Civil War. Silver coins were still kept from entering commerce in the East and Midwest, with the result that most of the 449,300 pieces produced for the 1867 were either exported or held as bullion reserves until being paid out after the government made a concerted effort to withdraw paper currency in the mid 1870s. The offered coin, of course, never reached circulation and is one of the few fortunate survivors to have been preserved by numismatists since the 19th century.
Provenance: From the Abigail Collection, Part II.
PCGS Population: 9; 9 finer (MS-68 finest).
PCGS# 6321. NGC ID: 24JT.
