1869 50C Standard Silver Half Dollar, Judd-754, Pollock-838, R.5-6, PR64 PCGS. The obverse features the bust of Liberty wearing a coronet with LIBERTY inscribed in raised letters. The motto IN GOD WE TRUST is on a scroll below. The reverse has 50 CENTS inside a wreath of oak and laurel leaves with STANDARD SILVER above and 1869 below. Struck in silver with a reeded edge. This fairly common pattern was sold as part of sets with the other designs and denominations for $15. This is a richly toned example that has deep, flashy mirrors in the fields. The basic gray patina that is seen over most of each side turns iridescent when angled just so beneath a light.From the Frank O. Fredericks Collection, Part III. Important notice: 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. 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.
