- 1859 Liberty Seated Half Dollar. Proof-62 (PCGS). CAC. The 1859 is the first Proof half dollar with a recorded mintage, a total of 800 pieces produced, more than had been earlier produced and reflecting the Mint's belief that its efforts at marketing these coins to contemporary collectors would result in strong sales. In reality, however, sales proved disappointing and much of the mintage remained unsold, the coins eventually placed into circulation. Survivors much scarcer than the mintage might imply and this is a significant example that has gained CAC-approval. Provenance: From the Abigail Collection, Part II. PCGS# 6413. NGC ID: 27TJ.
