- 1854 Liberty Seated Half Dollar. Arrows. WB-101. AU-55 (PCGS). CAC. The distinct Arrows, No Motto half dollar type of 1854 to 1855 was created when the Mint decided to drop the rays from the reverse design. The rays, along with the arrows at the date on the obverse, were added in 1853 to denote a weight reduction for the denomination from 13.36 grams to 12.24 grams pursuant to the Act of February 21, 1853. Whereas the rays were discarded after 1853 (they likely complicated the striking process and led to early die breakage), the Mint continued the arrows through 1855. Provenance: From the Abigail Collection, Part II. PCGS# 6279. NGC ID: 24JL. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
