A historic 1862 Seated Liberty Half Dime certified Extremely Fine 40 (XF40) by PCGS. Struck during the American Civil War era, this classic silver coin represents an important chapter in United States history and early American commerce.
Designed by Christian Gobrecht, the obverse features Liberty seated on a rock while holding a shield and liberty cap, symbolizing freedom and strength. The reverse displays a simple yet elegant wreath surrounding the denomination "Half Dime." The Seated Liberty Half Dime was produced from 1837 through 1873 and was the last U.S. coin series to carry the "half dime" denomination.
This 1862 example, issued during the Civil War, displays attractive circulated detail with the XF40 grade showing strong remaining design features and pleasing overall eye appeal. Certified by PCGS, this coin offers collectors an affordable opportunity to own an authentic 19th-century U.S. silver coin with historical significance.
A wonderful addition for collectors of Civil War-era coins, early U.S. type coins, Seated Liberty coinage, or classic silver denominations.
