Seated Liberty Half Dollars were minted from 1839 to 1891, featuring a design by engraver Christian Gobrecht. The 1863 Seated Liberty Half Dollar is particularly notable since it was produced during the American Civil War. Coins struck at the San Francisco Mint often carry a distinguished reputation among collectors, with lower mintages contributing to their desirability. The fifty-cent denomination has retained its appeal, especially in well-preserved condition, which can command significant premiums in the numismatic market.
