1891 Seated Liberty Half Dollar (50c)

The 1891 proof Seated Liberty half dollar represents the final year of this beloved series, as production would cease after 1891 to make way for Charles Barber's new design.

This PCGS PR65DCAM exhibits the deep cameo contrast that makes some proof Seated Liberty halves so visually striking. The heavily frosted devices create a dramatic contrast against the jet-black mirrored fields, giving Liberty an almost three-dimensional appearance as she emerges from the dark background. The surfaces are remarkably clean for the grade, with only the most minor hairlines visible under scrutiny. The eye appeal is exceptional - this coin delivers the full visual impact that proof collectors seek in this classic 19th century series.
