<B>1879 50C Morgan's Liberty Head Half Dollar, Judd-1600, Pollock-1795, Low R.7, PR66 Red NGC.</B></I> The designs are the same as described for Judd-1599. Struck in copper with a reeded edge. This is a sensational piece with fiery orange mint luster throughout. Central weakness is evident on both sides, although this piece is sharper than the J-1599 above. A few tiny discoloration spots on the obverse will serve the pedigree researcher. Indeed, these small characteristics clearly prove that this is the same piece offered by Bowers and Merena in their Tree Many Feathers Collection of September 2001 (actually sold in November). This Gem specimen is possibly the finest known example of the variety.<BR><I>Ex: Tree Many Feathers Collection (Bowers and Merena, 9/2001), lot 141.</B></I><BR><I>From The Jones Beach Collection.</B></I><BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coin/Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
