1854 Seated Half Dime Arrows - Very Fine ( 40516 )

Step back in time with the 1854 Seated Half Dime, featuring the iconic Arrows variety that marks a significant period in US coinage. Struck at the Philadelphia Mint, this piece hails from an era that predated standard coin certification, offering a tangible slice of history for enthusiasts and collectors alike.

This circulated coin belongs to the Seated (1837-1873) series of Half Dimes, a denomination that's no longer in use but holds a special place in the evolution of American currency. Its business strike type indicates it was a regularly minted coin, meant for commerce, rather than a proof or unique specimen. With its uncertified status, it presents an authentic and unfiltered piece of the past.
