Lot 1223
1891. PCGS graded MS-65 PQ CAC Approved. Well struck with some lovely golden toning on the obverse. The surfaces are bright with moon-glow white luster in the areas that are untoned, and show none of the muting often seen on late-date Liberty Seated halves. Such, then, for luster which we could go on and on about as it is so fresh. Turning to the other key indicator of grade, this is a coin that is desirable for its meticulous strike on all design features. Sharp everywhere, including Liberty’s gown (described as a Greek chiton in the literature), both shields, all stars, and all features of the eagle including feet & claws. Pop 22; 13 finer at PCGS (PCGS # 6373) . Estimated Value $3,000 - 3,300.
