1861 Seated Liberty Half Dollar, PR63 Cameo
Mirrored Fields and Sharp Contrast

1861 50C PR63 Cameo PCGS. CAC. Mint records indicate 1,000 proof Seated Liberty half dollars were struck in 1861, but a large number went unsold and were eventually melted. The issue is rare today in PR63 Cameo, as PCGS has certified only this single specimen in that designation, with five finer (12/09). The present coin has bright, deeply mirrored fields that contrast sharply with the frosty devices. Some light hairlines explain the grade.
