Spring 2023 U.S. Coins Auction

Losbeschreibung: 1802 Draped Bust Half Dollar. O-101, T-1, the only known dies. Rarity-2. EF-45 (NGC). A rich mottling of steel-blue and reddish-gold patina is seen on both sides of this handsome half dollar. Well struck for the type, the absence of all but light wear explains the abundance of bold detail in most areas. Considerable luster is noted, as well, making this one of the more desirable EF examples of this issue that we have offered in recent years. This single die marriage issue is scarce when viewed in the wider context of the Draped Bust half dollar series, and examples are eagerly sought at all levels of preservation. Tompkins Die Stage 1/1. PCGS# 39269. NGC ID: 24EE. Click here for certification details from NGC.
