Seated Half Dollars
1877 50C Closed Bud, WB-103, MS66+ PCGS. CAC. This is the Closed Bud reverse with no evidence of repunching on the date. The mintage of 8.3 million pieces makes this a moderately available date, and one that is overshadowed by the post-1878 issues with their memorably low mintages. This is a beautiful coin that displays rich sea-green and rose toning on each side. The peripheries are strong with some weakness evident in the centers. Population: 28 in 66 (9 in 66+), 2 finer. CAC: 14 in 66, 0 finer (7/17).
