Losbeschreibung

1839-O Capped Bust Half Dollar. Reeded Edge. MS-63 (NGC). Alone among mintmarked issues in the business strike Capped Bust Half Dollar series, the final-year 1839-O is a perennial favorite among advanced specialists. Here we offer a conditionally scarce Choice Unc, the surfaces sharply defined with a few blushes of charcoal tinting here and there at the rims. Otherwise we note a smoky-silver sheen to both sides with a few abrasions on Liberty's cheek and overall muting to the luster that preclude a higher Mint State rating.
