  • No Drapery Design Rarity: This unique early variation of the Seated Liberty Half Dime lacks the extra drapery folds beneath Liberty’s elbow, showcasing Gobrecht’s original vision before later design modifications.

  • Historic Southern Mint Production; Struck at the New Orleans Mint in its formative years, this coin represents one of the earliest branch mint Seated Liberty issues, adding historical and numismatic significance.

Struck at the New Orleans Mint in 1840, this No Drapery Seated Liberty Half Dime represents a short-lived and highly sought-after design variation in American numismatics. This version, distinct from later issues, lacks the additional drapery folds beneath Lady Liberty’s elbow, offering a clearer, more refined presentation of Gobrecht’s original vision.

The obverse features Liberty seated on a rock, holding a shield of freedom while grasping a pole topped with a Phrygian cap, symbolizing independence. The reverse showcases a delicate laurel wreath encircling the denomination, a hallmark of early Seated coinage.

As an early New Orleans Mint issue, this coin holds added significance, reflecting the craftsmanship of the South’s first mint. With its scarcity, historical appeal, and early design distinction, this is an exceptional addition for collectors of Seated Liberty series and branch mint rarities.Own a piece of early Southern coinage history today!
