1856-O Liberty Seated Half Dollar. NGC graded MS-66. A perfect example for a gem quality type set. In lesser Uncirculated grades, the 1856-O Half Dollar is fittingly said to be one of the more available dates of the No Motto series from the late 1850s. With a generous mintage of 2,658,000 pieces, survivors are generally available. The supply of Gems, however, is an entirely different matter although tend to be weakly struck. Offered here is flashy, first-rate an example of remarkable appeal and almost razor-sharp quality. The only soft image comes in at the left foot of the eagle, and this is minor. Shimmering, virtually blemish-free surfaces are beautifully supported by the layered golden and lavender-blue shades which grip the rim in a firm embrace. Pop 3 with none better. (PCGS # 6288) .
Estimated Value $7,000 - 8,000.
