- 1879 Liberty Seated Half Dollar. WB-102. Type II Reverse. MS-64 (PCGS).
A sudden influx into commercial channels of earlier-dated half dollars that had been hoarded during the Civil War and Reconstruction eras, coupled with implementation of prodigious Morgan dollar production pursuant to the 1878 Bland-Allison Act, explains why circulation strike half dollar coinage fell off markedly in 1879. Always in demand with collectors, this issue inaugurates a run of low mintage half dollars that would continue through the end of the Liberty Seated series in 1891. Just 4,800 circulation strikes were produced for the 1879.
Provenance: From the Abigail Collection, Part II.
PCGS# 6361. NGC ID: 24KS.
