Goldberg Coins and Collectibles



Sale 2


Lot 1309

1879. PCGS graded MS-65. A vibrant white gem that is fully struck and ablaze with luster. The fields are not the usually seen prooflike mirror, but have more of a satiny look. This is unusual in that the Philadelphia Mint only struck a total of 5,900 coins, including 1,100 Proofs, in 1879 as virtually their entire production was focused on grinding out gillions of Morgan Dollars instead of other denominations. Always popular with collectors, these later date Seated Half Dollars are rare in Gem Mint State.
