Coinage Act of 1853 reduced the weight of silver in our coinage below the dollar. This pair saw some good circulation . . . perhaps up through and including the Civil War. Huck Finn's mythical time was nigh . . . and the half dollar was the largest normally circulating coinage at the time.
WAS PC-15 and cracked it to put in my Dansco. Decided after years to reholder many of the 7070 coins and this one went back in . . . . PC-12. Oh, well . . . . no biggy
Circ cam . . . . got plenty of Wild West use . . . and who knows how many were fooled and thought this was a quarter in its circulation life ????
My son recently started working at a convenience store, Someone paid with a bunch of change today and this showed up in the till 100 years after being minted:

Well, I had a Black Lab mix that looked like your dog until 2017. She died of cancer, which seems to be rampant with them. She was one helluva dog!
