US Liberty Seated half dollar, with Arrows from the mint in San Francisco California. The US Liberty Seated half dollar series was issued from 1839-1891. The centerpiece of my chopmark collection. This coin stands on its own, at the same time it epitomizes what I set out to find for this collection - attractive and well-preserved pieces with chopmarks to signify their usage in commerce.
This example is a key date within the seated half series, with only 4 known true uncirculated examples. This example shows convincing uncirculated details and luster, with only the chopmarks keeping it from joining the elite group of 4 uncirculated examples known.
One obverse chopmark is weakly impressed with one reverse chopmark, both centered. My first thought was to confirm the chopmarks are legitimate and I am convinced they are. The first and possibly most convincing factor is that adding chops to this coin greatly diminishes the value. Second, the single, centered chopmarks are consistent with many other chopmarked examples of seated halves from this period. Something that initially concerned me about the coin is an apparent lack of reciprocal damage from the chopmarks. However, after viewing the coin in hand I can see the damage is present, although faint.
The obverse chop symbol is ? meaning "glory". The reverse chop symbol is ? meaning "central" or "middle".
A very attractive, neat coin that I am honored to hold in this collection.

The 1855-S Half Dollar is the only date of the 1853-1855 era that was struck with arrowheads to indicate the reduction in the weights of most U.S. silver coins under the Coinage Act of 1853. The 1955-S Half Dollar is an inherently rare date thanks to a small mintage, and it is especially elusive in Mint State. Only three Mint State examples have appeared on the market in recent years: the NGC MS67 from the Pryor and Osburn Collections; the PCGS MS64 from the Gardner Collection; and the PCGS MS62 now in the Hansen Collection. Even AU examples are pricey because they are also very rare and hard to find.
