1870 Standard Silver Half, PR64 Deep Cameo
Judd-928, The First We Have Offered

1870 50C Standard Silver Half Dollar, Judd-928, Pollock-1033, High R.7, PR64 Deep Cameo PCGS. CAC. Ex: Denali Collection. William Barber's always-popular Seated Liberty design. The obverse has Liberty seated left, surrounded by 13 stars with the date below. Liberty supports a shield with her right hand, and holds an olive sprig with her left hand. The shield is inscribed with the banner LIBERTY. The reverse displays a wreath of cotton and corn. 50 CENTS is located high within the wreath, and STANDARD is centered above. Struck in silver with a plain edge. This is a magnificent example with strong contrast between the frosted devices and deeply mirrored fields. Almost brilliant, there is just the vaguest suggestion of light reddish patina on each side.

Coin Index Numbers: (Variety PCGS# 800052, Base PCGS# 61173, Greysheet# 373617)
