Lot 1010
1858 Liberty Seated Half Dollar. NGC graded MS-65. Light antique gray toning on both sides of this gem, with one lighter patch on the upper right side of the obverse. Excellent luster in the fields and the surfaces are extremely nice for the grade. NGC has only graded 5 this high, with 1 graded higher (unless this coin was just submitted and not yet in the published population report). One of the best to come down to us of this so-called common date, but as we noted, this date is certainly downright rare in gem grades. Well struck although a few stars show minor central weakness, the central devices are strong.
Estimated Value $3,500 - 4,500.
