Gorgeous 1864 Half, MS65

1864 50C MS65 PCGS. Silver and gold issues of the middle 1860s, especially those minted in Philadelphia, are scarce today, despite rather generous mintages.

This lovely half is fully brilliant and lustrous with frosty silver surfaces, accented by delicate gold, blue, and iridescent toning. Population: 6 in 65, 5 finer (6/08).(Registry values: N2998)
