Description
1877 Liberty Seated Half Dollar. WB-103. Type II Reverse. MS-65+ (NGC).
This is an awe-inspiring piece with rich reddish-golden peripheral toning around brilliant, highly lustrous, satin white centers. The strike is razor sharp throughout, and the surfaces are nearly as fresh and smooth as the day the coin emerged from the dies. With a particularly generous mintage of 8,304,000 circulation strikes, the 1877 is one of the most frequently encountered Motto Liberty Seated half dollars in numismatic circles. The type as a whole is scarce to rare in the finest Mint State grades, however, and type collector pressure keeps demand strong for particularly attractive examples such as this lovely Gem.
PCGS# 6355. NGC ID: 24KK.
NGC Census: 2; 20 finer (MS-67* finest).
