Joe came across a rare 1870-CC Seated Half Dollar in a field in New York. The overall condition for where it has been is simply amazing!

This low serial note in Choice Crisp or higher will command in the neighborhood of $125-$750. In circulated shape with folds, they're worth 20-30% that amount!

Reverse of the coin exhibits a timeless portrait of a minute man in arms. A true classic to come!
