Lot 2928
1858 Liberty Seated Half Dollar. NGC graded Proof 64. Light gold and blue toning. Has a cameo effect. Approx 300 proofs struck. A satiny frosted gem with dynamic mirrors and rich champagne brown to blue-iridescent toning. This is among the scarcer No Motto issues because it is the first year that the mint actively sought coin collectors to purchase Proof sets. As a result, the coins were often better struck than before to ensure that the collectors would return each year. This is an exceptionally attractive 1858 Proof that should result in active bidding. Pop 9; 10 finer at NGC. (PCGS # 6412) .
Estimated Value $5,000 - 5,500.
