1887 50C MS (PCGS#6369)

Spring 2022 U.S. Coins Auction

详细说明: 1887 Liberty Seated Half Dollar. WB-101. MS-65 (PCGS). Originally toned with light mottling to blended rose-gray and steel-blue patina. Frosty surfaces are smooth, lustrous with vivid pinkish-apricot and cobalt blue undertones. Production of this denomination remained low in 1887 as the nation's economy continued to absorb a backlog of previously hoarded silver coins that had disappeared from commerce in the East early in the Civil War. Only 5,000 circulation strike half dollars were struck for the year, all at the Philadelphia Mint. Along with the other low mintage half dollars produced beginning in 1879, the 1887 is eagerly sought and is seldom found in Gem MS-65, as here. This coin delivers excellent eye appeal to match the superior surface quality. Provenance: From the Abigail Collection, Part II. PCGS Population: 18; 22 finer (MS-67+ finest). PCGS# 6369.
