Description
Rare Second Offering for an 1884 Half Dollar in MS-67
1884 Liberty Seated Half Dollar. WB-102. Repunched Date. MS-67 (NGC).
This delightful Superb Gem is fully untoned to allow ready appreciation of frosty design elements and satin to semi-reflective fields. The striking detail is razor sharp throughout, and the surfaces are expectably smooth at the assigned grade level. Minor repunching along the base of the digit 4 in the date is diagnostic of all known circulation strikes of the 1884 Liberty Seated half dollar. This is another low mintage delivery from the 1880s, a mere 4,400 coins emerging from the presses. As with most survivors, the present example is fully Mint State. The coin is also fully Superb in quality, however, which sets it apart from the vast majority of examples in numismatic hands.
PCGS# 6366. NGC ID: 24KX.
NGC Census: 7; with a single MS-67+ finer. The corresponding PCGS Population is similar at 7/3 (MS-68 finest).
From the Arlington Collection.
