1840-1873 Seated Liberty Silver Half Dime Good-Very Good

Product Description

We don't often feature these Seated Liberty half dimes, but we've worked hard to acquire enough mixed types to now be able to offer these collectible silver treasures! Prior to 1866, the nickel as we know it, did not exist in American coinage – but there was however, the silver half dime. Worth 5¢, the denomination had been minted off and on since the 1790s; the 1837-1873 Seated Liberty half dime series was the last of its kind. The majority of issues were struck by Philadelphia and New Orleans, and only a handful of dates by San Francisco. Alterations to its engravings occurred throughout the series, resulting in an array of collectible varieties. Our Good/Very Good quality specimens retain major designs and clear dates. Our choice of date, mint and type based on availability.
