Description
1879 Morgan Half Dollar in Silver
Judd-1601, PR67
1879 50C Morgan Half Dollar, Judd-1601, Pollock-1796, High R.6,
PR67 PCGS. CAC. Ex: Simpson. Morgan's bust for the 1878 silver
dollar appears on the obverse, reduced here in scale for the half
dollar denomination. E PLURIBUS UNUM and the stars have a layout
similar to the Morgan dollar obverse. The reverse features a
perched eagle sans wreath. The eagle clutches an olive branch with
seven leaves, and three arrows with large arrowheads. IN GOD WE
TRUST is widely spread and in tiny letters. Struck in silver with a
reeded edge. More than a dozen examples are believed extant of this
popular "mini-Morgan" pattern. Richly toned on both sides with
rose-colored centers that are surrounded by sea-green margins. The
underlying mirrors in the fields flash strongly through the toning.
Weakly struck in the centers, as always.Ex: Long Beach Signature (Heritage, 2/2005), lot 9867.
