The 1846 issue is notable for its limited mintage and the popular "Liberty Seated" design, showcasing Liberty seated on a rock, holding a liberty cap on a pole in one hand and a shield in the other. Collectors value these coins for their historical significance and aesthetic appeal, with condition and rarity greatly affecting their market prices. The 50-cent denomination of this series exemplifies the craftsmanship and artistry of mid-19th century American coinage.
