详细说明: Rare and Popular 1847/6 Half Dollar WB-9 Die Pairing 1847/6 Liberty Seated Half Dollar. WB-9, FS-301. Rarity-5. EF-45 (PCGS). CAC. This handsomely and originally patinated example exhibits warm silver gray patina to both sides, the obverse also splashed with mottled olive-gray overtones. Universally sharp Choice EF detail is noted, as are faint remnants of original luster that peer through the toning as the surfaces dip into a light. Smooth in hand with a delightful appearance, advanced Liberty Seated half dollar variety specialists are sure to compete vigorously for the honor of securing this significant coin. A highly elusive overdate, the 1847/6 is known in two die marriages, both of which share the same obverse. Close inspection of the present coin, a sharp early die state from the WB-9 pairing, readily reveals remnants of the 1846 logotype punch in the field between the primary date and the lower obverse border. For the assigned grade, it is difficult for us to imagine a more inviting example of this variety, examples of which are rare and eagerly sought at all levels of preservation. Provenance: From the E. Horatio Morgan Collection. PCGS Population: 6; 8 finer, just three of which are Mint State (all MS-62). PCGS# 6258. NGC ID: 24HA. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
