- 1858-O Liberty Seated Half Dollar. WB-106. Misplaced Date. MS-63 (NGC).
An interesting variety featuring the so-called "misplaced date" where the 1 is low and tilted to the left with the top of a mispunched 1 below it into the denticles. This coin was obviously an early strike from the dies, exhibiting nearly fully prooflike fields and razor sharp definition throughout. Each side is rather deeply toned in argent-gray shades with gold and peach accents at indirect light angles. This piece could easily be mistaken by the uninitiated for a branch mint Proof.
PCGS# 6294.
Provenance: From the Richard Jewell Collection. Earlier from our (Bowers and Merena's) sale of the Norweb Collection, Part III, November 1988, lot 3180; and our (Stack's) sale of the George "Buddy" Byers Collection, November 2006, lot 1187. Lot tags included.
