Brilliant 1854 Arrows Half, MS66

1854 50C Arrows MS66 PCGS. The infrequency with which this short-lived type appears as a Premium Gem should result in strong bids for this, a brilliant-white survivor of the 1854-P production. The luster quality is typically strong for the assigned grade. All features shimmer with a softly frosted texture. Abrasions are at a minimum, although several small milling marks on Liberty's chest and neck appear, along with interesting clash marks in the obverse field and surrounding the eagle on the reverse. As a future identifier, a barely visible diagonal toning streak runs from star 10 to the base of Liberty. A small network of die cracks runs through the base of all digits of the date, the left arrowhead, and up through the rock. This piece is uncommonly well struck for the type, with no ill-defined features. Certified in a green-label holder. Population: 6 in 66, 0 finer (3/09).
