1872 Liberty Seated Half Dime. Proof-65 (PCGS). CAC.

1872 Liberty Seated Half Dime. Proof-65 (PCGS). CAC.，Beautiful golden iridescence blankets both sides of this Gem Proof half dime, with the color deepening just a bit at the borders. The devices are sharply defined with a light satin finish that contrasts somewhat with reflective fields. The 1872 is the penultimate Proof in the United States Mints half dime series, as the denomination passed into history through the Act of February 12, 1873. This is a superior quality survivor from a mintage of 950 Proofs and would do justice to an advanced collection.，From the A.J. Vanderbilt Collection. Acquired from Albanese Rare Coins, Inc., April 2005; via Stacks.，
