Lot 1271
1874 Liberty Seated Half Dollar. Arrows. PCGS graded MS-62. A nice white example that is conservatively graded. Surfaces are finely granular and possess a tad of frost to them. Of the With Arrows Seated half dollars the 1874 has the largest mintage, 2,359,600 and subsequently it is often sought after as a type example for this design. Arrows appear at the date of these issues as a result of the Mint Act of February 12, 1873. In addition to design changes, this Mint Act also effectively increased the weight of the coins and caused many issues to needlessly be melted. PCGS population of 25 (PCGS # 6346) .
Estimated Value $1,000 - 1,100.
