Seated Half Dollars
1888 50C WB-101 MS67 NGC. Late-series Seated half dollars between 1879 and 1890 all have low mintages. The various mints were preoccupied striking millions of Morgan dollars. Dealers and speculators promoted the low mintages and many examples survive, although Superb Gem examples are rare and highly prized. This MS67 is a splendid 1888 coin that retains its naturally acquired colorful toning. Shades of deep-blue and tan-gold grace the sharply struck, frosted surfaces. Census: 10 in 67 (2 in 67+, 1 in 67★), 0 finer (2/24).
