Description

1842 Liberty Seated Half Dollar. WB-9. Rarity-3. Medium Date. MS-64+ (NGC).

Largely brilliant, both sides are enhanced by delicate champagne-pink peripheral iridescence that appears to drift toward the rims. Brightly lustrous with a frosty to semi-reflective finish. Fully struck. The Medium Date variant of the 1842 is one of the more plentiful issues of its era, but as with all 1840s half dollars Choice Mint State survivors such as this are rare and underrated in today's market.

PCGS# 6239. NGC ID: 27ST.

NGC Census: 1; 5 finer (MS-66 finest). The corresponding PCGS Population is 3/4 (MS-66 finest).

From the Arlington Collection.

Estimate: $4500
