1861. CSA Scott Restrike Half Dollar – PCGS MS-62.
Tap anywhere above to zoom
Just 4 original CSA half dollars were struck. NYC coin dealer J.W. Scott purchased the dies in 1879. He also purchased 500 1861 Seated Halves (allegedly O-mints), planed off the design of the Federal reverse and struck the CSA reverse. This is a particularly nice coin for the grade. The CSA side is well struck with beautiful problem-free surfaces that are original with light silver-gray toning. The 1861 obverse, which often comes poorly defined, is sharp including a bold LIBERTY.
