Description

1859 P50C Half Dollar, Judd-235, Pollock-284, R.5, PR55 ANACS. Anthony Paquet's design for the Seated series, here in the Half Dollar format. Liberty is seen seated in a stiff pose, left hand resting on an upright shield, right hand atop a fasces. The reverse features an eagle with outstretched wings, a scroll in its beak, and the usual statutory inscriptions above and below. Struck in silver with a reeded edge. This specimen displays most of its watery reflectivity despite evidence of mishandling, and there is a small planchet flaw along the obverse border between stars 12 and 13.
