- 1839-O Liberty Seated Half Dime. No Drapery. Small O. MS-61 (NGC).
Rich charcoal-mauve and steel-olive patina blankets both sides of this smartly impressed example. The surfaces are quite nice for the assigned grade and there are pretty iridescent undertones of cobalt blue and champagne-pink. The 1839-O is the New Orleans Mint's second half dime, and the first of the Stars Obverse Liberty Seated design type. The 1839-O was produced in a locality and during an era when there was virtually no contemporary numismatic activity, with the result that New Orleans Mint issues such as this were largely consumed by commercial use which, after all, was their intended purpose. The few Mint State coins that have come down to the present day survived almost exclusively as a matter of chance.
Provenance: From the Steve Studer Collection.
PCGS# 4320. NGC ID: 232T.
