1871 Liberty Seated Half Dollar 50c, Raw Ungraded Coin, XF Detail

  
Liberty Seated with a Heraldic Shield and Staff. Forward Facing Heraldic Eagle with Arrows and an Olive Branch. The Arrows and Rays design additions were used to denote weight changes that had created some striking difficulties for both half and quarter dollar seated issues. The rays emanating from the reverse eagle were eliminated from the design, but the arrows on either side of the date remained to signify the changes in weights. This type continued for two years when the design resumed as originally issued using the new reduced silver composition. The two year type issue was struck in Philadelphia, New Orleans and in a small quantity San Francisco. This item is in the category "Coins & Paper Money\Coins: US\Half Dollars\Seated Liberty (1839-91)".
