Circulated examples of the issue are common, but mint state examples are difficult to locate. In fact, the present coin is bested by just one other example, a PCGS MS66 which is in the primary D.L. Hansen collection. The overdate is as bold and clear as you will ever see on an 1855/54 Half Dollar. Lavender and blue tones mix together complimented by gold and tangerine hues at the rims to complete the original skin. Healthy luster swirls across the surfaces serving to highlight the strong details and enhance the natural coloration. Void of any mentionable marks or abrasions, this technical gem boasts powerful eye appeal as well! Sure to make a prized addition to any collection. - Liberty Seated Half Dollar
