Did any of you see the 2004 Seated Liberty Half go off ebay for $2850 plus freight on ebay. That's serious money for a modern eagle. I guess its because the coin is the rarest US type coin issued to the public since the 1915 PAN-Pac slugs. Wishing I had purchased a roll last spring.

    Never heard of a 2004 Seated Liberty half. Are you confusing this with another coin?

    I'm assuming this means a platinum proof.

    The coin shows liberty seated and the coin is struck on a half oz of platinum thus the term half is used. Proof platinum type coin collectors refer to this coin as a half. What I wrote was correct.


    Thanks

    It may have been correct to you and a few select platinum collectors but to 99% of the folks on this board it was not. Had you used 2004 Platinum 1/2 oz Eagle then you would have been 100% correct. Your reference would be the same as if I had referred to the sale of a 2004 Walking Liberty.

    I don't get the "seated" part. "Liberty Head" would have made more sense.
