NGC graded MS-62.
CAC APPROVED.
Beautiful hues
of cobalt-blue, electric-blue, crimson-red, and antique-gold
overlay each side in a "target" fashion. The strike is reasonably
sharp and the surfaces are very pleasing for the assigned grade
level. From a mintage of 302,700 pieces, this example has been
carefully stored for over 150 years.

PCGS graded MS-66.
CAC APPROVED.
A
wonderfully original, nicely toned example featuring shades
of deep sea-green at the borders. The hues gradually
lighten to russet, deep-red and gold toward the centers of
each side. Full, satiny luster overlays the fields, undisturbed
by any significant abrasions. Sharply struck in most areas,
with an exceptionally appealing appearance. Conditionally
rare this nice.
Pop 7; none finer at PCGS.

.
PCGS graded MS-65
. Well struck and rather deeply
toned. An appealing Gem example with original, nicely toned
originality plus impressive pristine surfaces providing a firm
base from which to project the color. A great deal of discussion
also surrounds a coin's strike. This lovely 1861 half dollar shows
excellent detail with no sign of weakness in the key highpoints
of the design, only a few of the obverse stars are not fully
brought up.
Pop 21; 17 finer, 1 in 65+, 15 in 66, 1 in 66+

1862
.
PCGS graded Proof 64
. A lightly toned proof with
nicely reflective fields and a full strike throughout. Minor hair-
lines are visible in the obverse and reverse fields, these being
the grade-limiting factors. For identification, a dark spot is seen
at the right base of the 2 in the date. A Civil War issue with a
mintage of only 550 pieces. Relatively available as a near-Gem,
but rare any higher. Liberty is quite frosty, and the eye appeal of
this coin is exceptional for the grade.
