Description: This scarce 1859 Seated Liberty Half Dollar was part of the Dr. Jerry Buss Collection AND Charles H Patten Collection. While Charles H Patten is a lesser known collector, his collection and life accomplishments are quite impressive. Dr. Jerry Buss is a more widely recognized individual, most known for owning the Los Angeles Lakers NBA basketball team. It appears as though Dr. Buss purchased this coin in the May 1973 Stacks Auction, and proceeded to sell the coin more than a decade later in a Superior Auction, January 28, 29, 30th of 1985. This particular coin was Lot #: 1080 in the Superior Sale. A pretty neat piece of numismatic history. Not many of these vintage auction tags still around, especially with well known provenance!
