This is good news, as family collections typically contain Morgan Dollars in the VF to XF grade range. The value here is approximately $90 to $450 with AU pieces potentially worth over a thousand, if you are lucky enough to come across one that nice.

1845-O 50C WB-4, Large O, Footless 1 VF35 PCGS #572040

http://www.lsccweb.org/BillBugertBooks/BillBugertBooks.php 1845-O With a high mintage, there are plenty of 1845-O half dollars available. However, there are a large number of die marriages and many interesting die varieties to keep collecting interesting including double dates, repunched dates, a triple date, over mintmarks, multiple reed counts, lots of cracked dies, two mintmark sizes, and even a footless 1. This is the first use of this obverse die and the only use of this reverse die. Date high with the lower left base of the 1 as a “footless 1” (photo); EDS: repunched 84 (photo above). LDS with the left foot of the 1 missing is shown on the next page. die crack from Liberty’s toes to K-4 clash lines in Liberty’s drapery below the elbow WB4 = Horizontal die lines in the lower shield and in the fields Large O mintmark, low, left, and tilting right Die cracks prominently thru UNIT(ED) (photo), others thru and above (STAT)ES OF, and thru olive leaves https://www.numismaticnews.net/archive/new-orleans-top-branch-mint-before-war The New Orleans issues from the next few years are basically in the pattern of the 1840 and 1841. They are available in a grade like G-4 and while not expensive in Mint State they cannot be considered available as they all have small numbers graded. This would prove to be very typical for New Orleans issues as in the 1840s and 1850s there were few if any avid collectors in the area. Moreover, the half dollar was a high denomination that would not have been heavily collected at the time. There is another factor as well as collecting by date and mint was not widespread at the time and that means that most collectors of the day would have opted for a Philadelphia example of any specific date as they were usually more available. Consequently the New Orleans Seated Liberty half dollars seem inexpensive based on the numbers known but for them to move significantly in price would require additional demand. In terms of a legacy, the early half dollars of New Orleans certainly take a back seat to very few other issues as they were historic and interesting coins. With a couple great rarities in their ranks it is not really possible to complete a set of early New Orleans half dollars. That doesn’t mean these coins should be ignored, because virtually all the other dates are available. Anyone who assembles a set of Capped Bust and Seated Liberty half dollars learns of the workings of a distinguished mint. Mark Twain as Sam Clemens in his riverboat days might just have carried one of these coins in his pocket.

1854-O 50C WB-58 Arrows XF45 PCGS #801291

http://www.lsccweb.org/BillBugertBooks/BillBugertBooks.php This is the first year of issue in the entire Liberty Seated half dollar series for the arrows only (no rays on the reverse) on the obverse die design. This is the only use of this obverse die and only use of this reverse die. Die lines from the rock into the shield’s left side Weak die crack above (UNITE)D 1854-O may be a special case. In measuring Mike Lloyd’s reference collection of 1854-O half dollars, I determined that most of his halves were slightly out of round. It was not atypical for individual half dollars to have .018”difference in measurements on two perpendicular axes. The likely cause of this was poorly prepared collars. From studying the data below, these collars may not have been used in other years. https://www.numismaticnews.net/archive/few-chase-after-seated-half-dollars To show the reduced silver content, the rest of the 1853 mintages would feature arrows at the date and rays on the reverse. The type would only be produced for part of 1853 as the rays were removed before the 1854 production, making the 1853 with arrows and rays half dollars important type coins. Fortunately the mintages were ample, but with the added type demand the arrows and rays half dollars of 1853 tend to be more costly especially in Mint State than would be expected based on their mintages. Currently the more available Philadelphia 1853 with arrows and rays, which had a mintage of over 3.5 million, is $31 in G-4 but $1,400 in MS-60 and $24,500 in MS-65, clearly reflecting the type demand. The removal of the rays produced a type that would last for two years with arrows at the date. The bulk of the dates from those two years are available starting at $28 in G-4 with an MS-60 at $600 and an MS-65 at $8,000. https://www.numismaticnews.net/archive/new-orleans-top-branch-mint-before-war In 1854 the rays were removed but the arrows at the date would remain and it would remain that way in 1854 and 1855 with the New Orleans totals for the two years standing at 5,240,000 for the 1854-O and 3,688,000 for the 1855-O. Both being $28 in G-4 and $600 and $650, respectively, in MS-60 with an MS-65 of either at $8,000. In terms of a legacy, the early half dollars of New Orleans certainly take a back seat to very few other issues as they were historic and interesting coins. With a couple great rarities in their ranks it is not really possible to complete a set of early New Orleans half dollars. That doesn’t mean these coins should be ignored, because virtually all the other dates are available. Anyone who assembles a set of Capped Bust and Seated Liberty half dollars learns of the workings of a distinguished mint. Mark Twain as Sam Clemens in his riverboat days might just have carried one of these coins in his pocket.
