1869 50C Standard Silver Half Dollar, Judd-753, Pollock-836, High R.7, PR64 Cameo PCGS. CAC. A bust of Liberty faces right on the obverse. The legend UNITED STATES OF AMERICA is around, IN GOD WE TRUST is on a scroll below. The denomination 50 CENTS is centered within a wreath of laurel and oak on the reverse. STANDARD SILVER is above, the date 1869 is below. Struck in aluminum with a plain edge. Struck in a wide variety of compositions, including silver, copper, and brass, in addition to aluminum. This is a gleaming, strongly contrasted piece with pale aluminum-white surfaces. When taking this piece in one's hand, most notable are its impressive apparent preservation (only a few stray hairlines affect the fields) and its remarkable lightness.
