1836[50C] Reeded Edge MS62 NGC.
<B>1836<50C> Reeded Edge MS62 NGC.</B></I> The 1836 Reeded Edge Half Dollar is an important transitional year issue, not only because it meant a design change for the largest production silver coin at the time, but also because it marked an updated change in the Mint's technology to the new steam press. Just 1,200 pieces were reportedly struck and it appears that, not only did most enter circulation, they stayed in commercial channels for decades before their rarity and significance was documented. The example offered here is one of just 20 to 30 pieces known to survive at the Mint State level. Each side is boldly detailed, including the peripheral areas, and displays a mildly reflective sheen under medium gray-lilac toning. Population: 5 in 62, 8 finer (4/04). <BR><BR><B>Important notice:</B> Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 200-250 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Since eBay bids are not shown to us until we open the lot on the floor, we treat those bids just like floor bids. In most cases the floor responds before the eBay bid is presented to us, due to Internet lag time, so for consistency we have made it a policy that floor bids are always considered first over tie eBay live bids. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through eBay Live carry a 20% Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid.
