Lot 1270
1873-S Liberty Seated Half Dollar. Arrows. PCGS graded AU-55 PQ. A light gray and lustrous example that is nearly all white except for some splashes of lavender hues. Radial luster is complete over both the obverse and reverse and appears mint state in quality. In fact, the entire coin seems to be mint state and what appears to be friction on Liberty's top right leg could actually just be a combination of strike weakness and a little wipe. A fully struck and choice example! The 1873-S half dollar has only ever been found in the With Arrows format. Although 5,000 No Arrows are reported to have been struck, not a single example has ever been found. The 1873-S With Arrows half dollar is scarce in all grades and rare in mint state. PCGS population of 2 in AU58, 1 in MS-62, 4 in MS-64 and 2 in MS-65 as finest (PCGS # 6345) .
Estimated Value $900 - 1,000.
The Michael M. Magdic Collection.
