Description
This 1853 Seated Liberty Half Dollar - A&R, Miller Rulau NY-899D J bears a counterstamp cataloged as Brunk T-95 in Gregory G. Brunk's standard reference on American countermarked coins. Counterstamps were applied to circulating coins by merchants, silversmiths, and tradesmen as a form of portable advertising — the business card of early America. The host coin is a 1853 dollar from the Seated Liberty Half Dollars 1839-1891 series. Cataloged as PCGS #543334. Counterstamped coins documented in Gregory G. Brunk's "American and Canadian Countermarked Coins" sit at the intersection of numismatics and Americana — each piece is a primary-source historical document of early American commerce. The counterstamp adds a unique layer of provenance that distinguishes this coin from all other examples of its type.
