    Awesome half Bob.

    I have yet to get a seated half. I got barber halfs from the 1890's but that's it.

    They don't turn up to often.

    She's a beauty, Bob! Seated silvers don't come much nicer than that one. Congrats on a great find!

    "My only found seated half" ... hasn't showed up yet.

    Congrats!

    (PS- my only dug Seated quarter happens to be an 1855 with arrows, like your half, though nowhere near as nice, and without a mintmark.)
