1862 Liberty Seated 50c Ngc Pr 66 Cam

  
1862 LIBERTY SEATED 50C NGC PR 66 CAM. Although many numismatists find the design attractive, the Mint terminated the Arrows and Rays Seated Half Dollar after only a single year of production.

The arrows at the date remained for two more years, however, although by 1856 Mint officials no longer felt that it was necessary to include a special feature to distinguish those Half Dollars struck after the February 21, 1853 weight reduction from those delivered before. The Philadelphia Mint struck proof Arrows, No Motto Seated Half Dollars in both 1854 and 1855. Original mintages are unknown, but the number of survivors suggests that they were very limited.

Examples are of the utmost rarity, and they enjoy strong demand among both proof type collectors and specialists in Seated coinage. This item is in the category "Coins & Paper Money\Coins: US\Half Dollars\Seated Liberty (1839-91)". The seller is "rarecoinwholesalersca" and is located in this country: US.
