The Seated Liberty Half Dollar series, struck from 1839 to 1891, occupies a distinguished place in American numismatics. These coins appeal to collectors across a broad range of budgets, as the series encompasses everything from common circulation issues to genuinely rare specimens in higher grades. This 1869-S Half Dollar was released during America’s Reconstruction Era and boasts an impressive Mint State 67 certification from the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC). Right now, the 1869-S Seated Liberty Half Dollar Coin is available at JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
This 1869-S Seated Liberty Half Dollar boasts an MS67 grade, indicating exceptional eye appeal with original mint luster still present. Three or four very small contact marks are possible on the coin, as well as one more noticeable mark. This specific piece features a vibrant mint luster with sharp definition across the Seated Liberty and Heraldic eagle visuals on each side.
The 1869-S Seated Liberty Half Dollar was produced at the San Francisco Mint during a period of steady but unspectacular output for the denomination. With a mintage of approximately 656,000 pieces, it is not among the rarest dates in the series, yet well-preserved examples with original luster are genuinely scarce in the marketplace today. Most surviving specimens show evidence of extensive circulation, as these coins served actively in commerce throughout the western United States.
The obverse of the 1869-S Seated Liberty Half Dollar features a design by Christian Gobrecht. Drawing on classical imagery, Gobrecht’s design depicts a seated figure of Liberty rendered in a flowing gown, her right hand resting on a shield inscribed with the word LIBERTY and her left hand grasping a pole surmounted by a Liberty cap. Stars surround the central figure, with the date appearing below.
On the reverse of the 1869-S Seated Liberty Half Dollar Coin, you will find the heraldic eagle with outstretched wings, a shield on its breast, and arrows and an olive branch clutched in its talons, enduring symbols of both military readiness and the pursuit of peace. Coins issued in this series after the Civil War include the national motto of IN GOD WE TRUST on a banner above the eagle.
