<B>1878-CC 50C AU58 PCGS.</B></I> The Bland-Allison Act of 1878, requiring the Treasury to purchase vast amounts of silver to coin Morgan dollars, is responsible for the scarcity of the 1878-CC Seated half and the legendary rarity of the 1878-S half. The Carson City Mint produced only 62,000 halves, and at AU58 this piece rates an R.5 rarity rating from Wiley-Bugert. The lustrous surfaces are an even mix of steel-gray and pinkish-blue. Population: 2 in 58, 12 finer (3/08).<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>)
