Set of three USA (New Orleans mint) half dollar Seated Liberty, 1861-O, from the SS Republic (1865), encapsulated NGC Shipwreck Effect, representing US issue (rare, W-01A), Louisiana issue (W-07) and Confederate issue (W-13), in promotional case. KM-A68. 10-3/4" x 7-1/4" x 2-1/2" (case). The US issue with light surface corrosion but the other two nearly unaffected (those two labeled as [B] UNC), rare and valuable as a matched date-set due to the US issue (as most sets have an earlier date to represent the US issue) and fascinating as commemorating the secession of Louisiana and its admission to the Confederate States during the Civil War. From the SS Republic (1865), in promotional case with DVD.
