The 1842 Seated Liberty Half Dollar – Medium Date is a highly desirable variety distinguished by the Reverse of 1842, featuring a crosslet at the end of the crossbar of the numeral 4. With a mintage of 2,012,764 and a survival estimate of just 1,200 pieces, reflecting a minuscule 0.060% survival rate,  this issue is an exceptional rarity, especially in high grades. This superb GEM example, the sole finest PCGS-graded piece with none finer, showcases remarkable semi-reflective luster and a dappled patina of bluish-gray, lilac-slate, and olive-russet hues, with untoned silver bursting through, adding contrast and vibrancy. The surfaces exhibit only minute, toned-over ticks, reflecting the coin’s exceptional preservation and originality. The strike is crisp and full, with sharp details in both Liberty’s figure and the eagle’s plumage, a level of detail rarely encountered for this issue. Its prestigious provenance includes Steve Contursi, the Oliver Jung Collection, and the Eugene H. Gardner Collection, reinforcing its historical and numismatic significance. With a PCGS Population of 1, NGC Population of 1, and CAC Approval of 1, this coin represents the absolute pinnacle of condition rarity, making it a premier acquisition for advanced collectors, registry set competitors, and Seated Liberty Half Dollar specialists. A coin of this caliber—superbly struck, beautifully toned, and of unmatched condition rarity—commands attention in any elite collection. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to acquire the finest known 1842 Medium Date Half Dollar.
