1859 Pattern Half Dollar. Silver, reeded edge PCGS PR65
A fascinating example of the Anthony C. Paquet design. All features of th is piece are razor-sharp. But that isn't enough for some collectors, and why should it be when you have to possibility of beautiful color thrown into the mix as well. This coin has delightful shades of toning on both sides. You can tell by the photos and you can see even better when holding this handsome coin in your palms that it is truly magnificent, a sight to behold, a joy for all time! In this rendition of Liberty, she sits between a fasces and axe on one side and a broad shield on the other, with the 13 stars arranged 7 x 6 around her.
