1845 Liberty Seated Half Dollar. WB-3. Rarity-3. EF-45 (PCGS). CAC.Richly and originally toned, both sides are awash in a bold blend of steel gray, pewter gray and antique gold. Half dollar production at the Philadelphia Mint dipped to just 589,000 circulation strikes in 1845, one of the lowest outputs for this denomination from that decade. Long regarded as a key date issue among specialists, even problem free and attractive EF survivors such as this are scarce.From the E. Horatio Morgan Collection.
