- 1858 Liberty Seated Half Dollar. Proof-63 (PCGS). Sweeping halos of deep steel-blue and reddish-russet toning adorn the peripheries and frame virtually brilliant, silver-tinged centers. Universally mirrored in finish, as confirmed at all viewing angles, sharp striking detail is also a praiseworthy attribute. Most sources provide a figure of approximately 300+ coins struck, but with so many examples melted as unsold, this early date Proof Liberty Seated half dollar issue is far rarer in today's market than such an estimated mintage might imply. Likely, the number of coins extant in all grades is on the order of 100 to 120 pieces, perhaps even fewer given the range of 80 to 100 extant published by PCGS CoinFacts. Market appearances are infrequent, at best, especially with the vivid toning and superior eye appeal offered here. Provenance: From the BASH Collection.
