1867 Half Dime, MS67 Prooflike
Lowest-Mintage Business Issue

1867 H10C MS67 Prooflike PCGS. CAC. V-1. Ex: Bender Collection. The present Superb Gem is the single-finest business strike 1867 half dime at PCGS (5/23). Additionally, only one example is certified MS67 by PCGS. The commercial 1867 half dime mintage was just 8,000 pieces, the lowest business-strike production of the Seated half dime series. The mintage was tiny because fractional currency had displaced silver coin in circulation. This superlative example displays radiant caramel-gold fields. The borders show peach-red toning, along with a blush of powder-blue patina on the obverse near 3 o'clock.
