Here's a matching seated half pair you don't see every day

I thought this was pretty neat. Just got back two matching 1873 open 3 half dollars from grading. A scarce variety for the year, the 1873 open 3 (no arrows) has a low survival rate. Less than 50 pieces graded by PCGS. Surprisingly, the mintage rates are not that extreme, with records showing 214,200.

    Nice and difficult to find coins.

    The one of the left looks to have slightly better features!
