1852 Liberty Seated Half Dollar. MS-62. One of the scarce dates due to the massive meltings as discussed under the 1851 half dollar above. Not only was 1852 a low mintage date, but most of those produced were melted. This one has been cleaned, lightly, but evidence can be seen in the fields of minute hairlines. Now it is toned a lovely gray tone with frosty luster in the fields. A tough coin to find in high grade, actually in any grade. This wonderful collection will provide countless collectors a chance to add several fantastic high grade coins to their date sets. Such a collection, nearly a complete major variety set, is seldom offered for sale. Back up the truck and take home a load of these, you will be glad you did.
