This is an exquisite 1858 Seated Liberty Half Dime, showcasing the artistry of Chief Engraver Christian Gobrecht. While the coin has been graded as 'Very Good', it exhibits a prominent gash on the obverse, which may affect desirability for some collectors. The coin is composed of 90% silver and features major design elements that are still visible despite wear. Surfaces show some toning and contact marks, which are typical for coins of this grade. This piece offers a unique opportunity for collectors looking to own a piece of American history despite its condition. Perfect for a budget-minded collector or as a filler piece in a collection.
