1875 Seated Half Dollar, MS65
Ideal With Motto Type Coin

1875 50C WB-101 MS65 PCGS. With a mintage exceeding 6 million coins, the 1875 Philadelphia half dollar is among the most available issues in the entire Seated half dollar series. The date is well-represented in type sets, and this Condition Census example would be a perfect candidate for inclusion in such a collection. Light silver-gray surfaces display bits of orange-gold toning intermingled with silver-white windows. This is a beautifully frosted Gem -- fully struck and minimally abraded. Two small reeding marks on Liberty's torso and left thigh serve as well-hidden yet useful pedigree identifiers.
