- 1864-S Liberty Seated Half Dollar. WB-1. Rarity-2. Type I Reverse, Large S. AU-58 (PCGS). CAC.
The obverse displays gently mottled sandy-olive and mauve obverse toning with emerald green highlights, while the reverse is more minimally patinated with blushes of reddish-russet around the periphery. This is a very appealing example of what Bill Bugert describes in Volume I of his Register of Liberty Seated Half Dollar Varietiesas "a scarce date." A mintage of 658,000 pieces is generous for the era, but the insatiable demand for gold and silver coinage in the West at that time claimed most examples. The low CAC population further confirms the significance of this offering.
Provenance: From the Abigail Collection, Part II.
CAC Population: 5 in all AU grades, with a single coin in Mint State.
PCGS# 6312. NGC ID: 24JE.
