Obverse Description
Lady Liberty is seated on a rock, holding a staff, and bearing a shield with the word LIBERTY on a flowing ribbon. 13 stars have adorn the periphery and the date appears at the bottom center. Arrows have been added to the left and right of the date.
Reverse Description
The words HALF DIME are centered and surrounded by a wreath tied by ribbon and bow at the bottom with UNITED STATES OF AMERICA around the periphery.
Book Reference
Designer: Christian Gobrecht. Weight: 1.24 grams. Composition: .900 silver, .100 copper. Diameter: 15.5 mm. Edge: Reeded. Mints: Philadelphia, New Orleans.
Key to Collecting: Half dimes of the 1853 to 1855 With Arrows type are plentiful today in circulated grades, less so in Mint State. These are still easy enough to find, mostly in grades MS-60 to MS-63. Gems are not rare, but are in the minority. Most Mint State coins are of the 1853 Philadelphia issue, which recorded by far the largest mintage.
Aspects of Striking and Appearance: Vary widely. Often with one or more problems such as weak stars, weak head of Liberty, light definition on the higher leaf details, and mushy denticles. Many are not sharp and some are struck from “tired” dies. Cherrypicking is strongly advised, although there will be many candidates from which to choose.
Proof Coins: Exceedingly rare. Most bear the 1854 date. Proofs are well struck, and choice examples have a pleasing appearance.
