1851 Liberty Seated Half Dollar. WB-6. Rarity-4. AU-58 (PCGS).Offered is a handsome and highly desirable near-Mint example of this elusive Philadelphia Mint Liberty Seated half dollar issue. The reverse is toned in a bold blend of antique gold and pewter gray, while the obverse exhibits more vivid reddish-gold, steel-gray and olive, largely confined to the protected areas around the devices. The strike is virtually full on both sides, and the surfaces are pleasingly smooth and suitably lustrous for the assigned grade. From a mintage of 200,750 circulation strikes, the total limited due to the fact that by the early 1850s the bullion value of newly minted silver coins exceeded face value. In 1851, for example, $100 in face value of silver coins was worth on average $103.40. Most 1851 half dollars were gathered up by speculators shortly after minting and were coins eventually melted for their precious metal content. The few survivors are generally lightly circulated, as here, or Mint State. Well worn examples are exceedingly rare and represent coins that were exported at the time of issue and repatriated after seeing years of extensive commercial use in Canada or Latin America. The present example is one of the nicest AU 1851 half dollars we have handled in quite some time, and it is sure to find its way into an advanced Liberty Seated half dollar collection.
