1863 Liberty Seated Half Dollar. WB-7. Rarity-4. MS-66 (PCGS). Highly lustrous and supremely attractive, both sides exhibit platinum-white luster in a hard, frosty texture. The fields are semi-reflective and show numerous fine die polish lines (as made) as the coin rotates under a light. Predominantly brilliant, we do note delicate champagne-pink iridescence clinging to the denticles. An unusually full strike is seen throughout, including at Libertys head and the surrounding stars. This is a charming piece that is sure to appeal to the discerning collector of Liberty Seated half dollars.<p>Produced in relatively limited numbers during the economic turmoil of the Civil War era, the 1863 is a scarce and underrated Liberty Seated half dollar issue in all circulated and Mint State grades. The solidly graded Gem we offer here is extremely rare from a condition standpoint. PCGS# 6309. NGC ID: 24JB. PCGS Population: 2; 3 finer (MS-67 finest). From the Arlington Collection.
