1876 Seated Liberty Half Dollar

[gklug]

This is my first Seated Half and I found it along the river. I was shocked that it was even a coin let alone this one. I am still hyperventilating.


Unfortunately, no mint mark on the back...but whatever....I love her

I don't understand the "unfortunately no mint mark" anecdote, but any seated half is an extremely rare find. Congrats on a huge old silver.

Not too many seated halves get dug. I'd say most detectorists have never dug one.

congrats,

Much appreciated Chris. We don't get too many days like this so when you find something special it makes all the effort worth it.

Now that's an awesome find!! Congrats, you must be stoked! 50 cents was a lot of money back in 1876, check out this link: JF Ptak Science Books: How Much Was 50 Cents Worth in 1876?
