Obverse: Liberty Head with a Tiara (diadem) inscribed with LIBERTY and without any stars, and her hair is tied in a bun. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA is around the bust with “IN GOD WE TRUST” on a ribbon below.

Reverse: The denomination 50 Cents and the date 1870 is in the center of the wreath of Cotton and corn and inscription STANDARD is at the top.

Comment:
The N in IN and the E in WE are lightly repunched within the motto, which resides in a scroll below the bust. This impressive Choice proof displays sharply detailed frosty design elements that contrast boldly with the reflective fields.

Mostly brilliant surfaces are well-preserved and show a few subtle hints of pale green toning.
