coins \ Coin \ United States of America \ 50c \ Liberty Seated Half Dollars \ 1876 \ San Francisco
Liberty Seated Half Dollars were minted in the United States from 1839 to 1891 and feature a design by engraver Christian Gobrecht. The 1876 San Francisco issue is part of this series, and it holds significance for its historical context, marking a period of economic change in the U.S. during the post-Civil War era. Collectors often seek these coins for their artistic design and rarity, particularly in high-grade condition. The 1876-S variant is particularly notable due to its lower mintage compared to other years in the series, making it a desirable piece for numismatists.
