Lot Description

1827 Capped Bust Half Dollar. O-118a. Rarity-3. Square Base 2. AU-53 (PCGS). CAC. Warmly patinated in dominant pewter gray, this lustrous AU example reveals intermingled reddish-apricot highlights as the reverse rotates under a light. Softness of detail at the borders is commensurate with the 1827 O-118a die state, the detail considerably sharper toward the centers. Smooth and inviting for the assigned grade, and worthy of a solid premium. Provenance: From the E. Horatio Morgan Collection. PCGS# 407160. NGC ID: 24FN.
