Description
1862 Half Dollar, MS64
Low-Mintage, Hoarded Civil War Issue
1862 50C MS64 NGC. CAC. Following a Philadelphia mintage of
more than 2.9 million Seated halves in 1861, the Mint struck just
253,000 pieces in 1862, most of which were soon pulled from
circulation into Civil War silver hoards. This is a lightly toned
and scarce, near-Gem example of the issue, with a blush of
russet-gold toning over the lilac-silver and powder-gray surfaces.
Strong mint luster shines through on both sides. The population
reports for both PCGS and NGC confirm the Mint State scarcity of
the 1862. CAC endorsed. Census: 16 in 64 (3 in 64 ★ ), 9
finer. CAC: 5 in 64, 5 finer (4/16).From The Rev. Dr. James G. K. McClure Collection.(Registry values: N1793)
