Lot 2098
1869-S Liberty Seated Half Dime. PCGS graded MS-64. A scarce date in high grades, we note this one is frosty and white, with strong luster in the fields and no signs of toning. Fully struck by dies, with crisp details on the wreath and on Liberty's head. On the obverse, we note the small die chip in the drapery folds above the pendant as described in Al Blythe's Liberty Seated Half Dimes book. PCGS has graded only 5 this high, with a single coin graded higher, which gives you some idea of how rare this date is in high grades.
Estimated Value $700 - 900.
