1891. NGC graded MS-66. A boldly struck gem with brilliant untoned frosty surfaces throuhout. Both sides display ample sharpness and shimmering luster under a light, the silvery color is very alluring. There is almost no correlation between mintage and high grade when it comes to most Seated Liberty half dollars. Despite a comparatively normal production of exactly 200,000 pieces, even a Choice Mint State representative can be difficult to locate and the quantity of Gems extant probably number fewer than three or four dozen, some of which have been graded by a third-party service, others "out there" hiding in old-time collections. This is one of the handsomest 1891 half dollars to be had! Pop 11; 4 finer with 2 in 66+, 2 in 67. Estimated Value $5,000 - 5,500. Categories: Half Dollars
