The Seated Liberty Half Dollar is a U.S. coin minted from 1839 to 1891, featuring a seated Liberty design by engraver Christian Gobrecht. The 1874 edition, particularly those minted in Carson City, is notable for its limited mintage and higher demand among collectors, making it a sought-after variety. The coin's obverse features Liberty seated on a rock, while the reverse depicts an eagle. The Carson City mintmark ("CC") adds to its desirability due to the lower production levels at that facility.
