1857. PCGS graded MS-65. This richly original Gem exhibits somewhat mottled golden-mauve toning over each side. Softly frosted in texture, with some striking incompleteness on the obverse stars, Liberty's head, and the letters of the denomination on the lower reverse. This was possibly the result of misaligned dies. A respectable mintage of 1.9 million pieces conceals the true scarcity of this half dollar issue in this high grade. Pop 5; 4 finer, 2 in 65+, 2 in 66. (PCGS # 6290) . Estimated Value $4,000 - 4,400. Categories: Seated Liberty Half Dollars
