Losbeschreibung

1814 Capped Bust Half Dollar. O-107. Rarity-2. MS-64 (NGC). This handsome near-Gem ranks among the finest known examples from these dies. Satiny surfaces are attractively toned in mint-green, silver-gray and crimson-pink, the former color more extensive on the obverse. The strike is universally sharp, although the obverse impression is drawn toward 7 o'clock with the denticulation absent along the lower left border. Although not corresponding to the latest state of this variety (O-107a), this coin still represents an advanced die state of the 1814 O-107 half dollar with numerous clash marks on both sides. The most significant examples of this variety known to Stephen J. Herrman (Auction & Mail Bid Prices Realized for Bust Half Dollars: 1794-1839, Autumn 2016 revision) grade MS-64, MS-65 and MS-66. The present example is an apparent newcomer to the Condition Census, and would do equally well in a high grade type set or specialized early half dollar collection. PCGS# 6105. NGC ID: 24F3.
