1872 Half Dollar, MS66
Radiant Mint Luster

1872 50C WB-101 MS66 PCGS. A mintage exceeding 880,000 pieces and uninspiring Guide Book values hinder collector recognition of the 1872 Seated half dollar as a scarce date. High-end circulated coins are infrequently seen, and the issue is genuinely rare at any Mint State level. This Premium Gem is tied with four others at PCGS as finest certified. Luster glistens over the frosty, untouched surfaces while yielding lovely orange-gold, lavender, and deep blue toning. The strike is boldly rendered, and a few tiny ticks are restricted to the high points of Liberty's legs. An outstanding opportunity for the astute Seated half specialist.
