Description

Liberty Seated Half Dollar
1874 Liberty Seated Half Dollar. Arrows. MS-66 (PCGS).
This Gem 1874 Arrows half dollar boasts astounding luster on both sides, with a satiny texture in the fields and more rich frosting across the design elements. The obverse is toned in splashes of bronze and navy-blue patina at the borders, while the reverse is more deeply colored in shades of gold, crimson and sapphire blue. Among the finest known, just 4 coins have been certified finer by PCGS. The Arrows type of 1873 to 1874 is more challenging to locate than those dated 1854 to 1855, in all grades, both circulated and Mint State. 1874 has the highest mintage of this type at 2,359,600 circulation strikes and, as a result, it is obtainable in grades up to and including MS-64. However, above that level the 1874 is rare, especially relative to the strong demand from advanced type collectors. This lovely Gem is an important condition rarity and will be a highlight in a fantastic numismatic cabinet or PCGS Registry Set.
PCGS# 6346. NGC ID: 24LA.
PCGS Population: 3; 4 finer.
