Choice $950 Very Small O, Choice Original, Frosty Luster, Well Struck, Accurately Graded, Sooner Collection. The initial year of Liberty Seated half dollar production at the New Orleans mint brought the usage of a Small Letters reverse. This surviving example offers noteworthy eye appeal along with choice surfaces and steely-frosted luster. Faint gold covers both sides with darker shades towards the peripheries. Mint frost surrounds the stars and date along with being present throughout Liberty's gown and within the shield. The same is true for the reverse with ample mint frost in the fields, surrounding the legend and within the eagle feathers. Obverse strike is complete while the reverse only lacks full definition of the lower left facing eagle left and claws. Housed in NGC Gen 7 (1997-2000) holder, Ex New Jersey and Newtown Collections.
