The Seated Liberty Half Dollar was first minted in 1839 and features a design by engraver Christian Gobrecht. The coin depicts Lady Liberty seated on a rock, holding a pole with a liberty cap, and is accompanied by a shield. The 1854 issue is particularly significant in the series due to its limited mintage and is sought after by collectors for its historical value and aesthetic appeal. Collectors often focus on factors such as condition, mint marks, and variety to determine the value of these coins within the marketplace.
