Minted 1839 to 1891
What an exciting series to collect! 1839 was a transition year for the silver half dollar, with both Capped Bust Halves and Seated Liberty Halves being struck that year. Minting of the Seated Liberty Half continued through 1891 with several notable varieties being issued, including the Drapery variety, a variety with No Motto, as well as the very popular Arrows and Rays variety. Several years have the Arrows at the date to signify a change in the weight of the coin. Interestingly, Seated Liberty Halves were struck in Philadelphia, Carson City, and San Francisco for most of their life, but only struck at the New Orleans mint until 1861 when the Mint was captured by the confederacy. No Seated Liberty Half Dollars were minted at New Orleans after that date.
How much does this rascal weigh? Cant find for some reason, i will buy 100, if 1 oz.
A very welcome addition to my collection, well represented and the grading seems to be accurate to my eye. Very happy to have stumbled upon Mount Vernon Coin and look forward to doing more business with them in the future.
