| Reversbeschreibung | A heraldic bald eagle is displayed at the center of the field, with wings spread and head turned to the right. The eagle's talons clutch an olive branch to the left and a bundle of three arrows to the right, and it bears upon its breast a vertical striped shield. The arc legend UNITED STATES OF AMERICA curves along the upper periphery, while the denomination HALF DOL. is inscribed along the lower periphery, all contained within a beaded border. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
The Seated Liberty half dollar series spans one of the most turbulent decades in American monetary history. The Civil War triggered a hoarding crisis so severe by 1862 that virtually all silver coinage vanished from circulation in Union states — not melted, simply hoarded by a public that no longer trusted paper currency. Specimens from 1862–1865 almost certainly spent the war in a jar or a mattress rather than a till.
The arrows flanking the date on 1853–1855 issues marked a congressionally mandated weight reduction. Their removal in 1856 restored the pre-reduction design, which held until the Mint Act of 1873 forced another revision.
