1854-O 50C Arrows MS66 NGC
<B>1854-O 50C Arrows MS66 NGC.</B></I> Ex: Foxfire. The Arrows, No Rays, No Motto type was struck just two years, 1854 and 1855. Mintages at New Orleans were plentiful for both dates, since old tenor silver coins were hoarded, and needed to be replaced in circulation. The 1854-O is common in circulated grades by Seated half standards, but Mint State examples are scarce, and are in demand as a short-lived type. Unquestioned Gems are undoubtedly rare, particularly with the eye appeal of the present well struck piece. This intensely lustrous Premium Gem is delicately toned golden-brown, and shows only trivial contact. Wiley-Bugert state that: "There is no variation in the placement of the date and arrows which we believe were punched into a master head die." Census: 9 in 66, 3 finer (10/07).<BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> Christian Gobrecht<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
