This 1858 Liberty Seated Half Dime is a strong Extremely Fine Forty Five example that has been certified and approved by CAC. Coins that receive CAC approval are recognized for premium quality within the assigned grade and are favored by collectors for their solid surfaces and attractive eye appeal.
Struck during the mid nineteenth century this half dime represents classic early United States silver coinage. These small silver coins saw heavy circulation in everyday commerce making problem free higher grade survivors increasingly difficult to locate.
This coin shows sharp remaining detail throughout Liberty the shield and the reverse wreath with moderate even wear consistent with the Extremely Fine grade. Major design elements are bold and well defined and the surfaces display natural color with smooth honest texture and pleasing overall eye appeal.
