1876 Seated Liberty Half Dollar PCGS VF30 Great Pastel Toning Superb Original
This 1876 Philadelphia issue Seated Liberty Half Dollar exemplifies originality. The pastel tones of amber, aqua, golds, and sea greens are subtle and baked deep into the patina like a slowly cooked pot roast simmered to perfection. Holding the coin and tilting in the light, one could learn a lot when trying to assimilate artifical from natural toning using this coin as an example. The patina is thick and very pleasing. Nary a hair line, nor any other indication of mishandling, improper storage nor any other mischievous deeds appear to have transpired throughout this coins 148 year existence.
