1834 Capped Bust Half Dollar. O-120. Rarity-4. Small Date, Small Letters. MS-64 (PCGS). Delightful satin surfaces are vividly toned in cobalt blue, reddish-rose and pearl gray iridescence. The focal features exhibit uncommonly sharp striking detail for a late date Lettered Edge half dollar, the impression also ideally centered with uniformly denticulated borders around both sides. This smooth and impressive Choice example is ranked CC#2 for the 1834 O-120 dies in the Autumn 2020 revision to Stephen J. Herrman's AMBPR for Bust half dollars. A fleeting bidding opportunity for the specialist. Provenance: From the Collection of Richard Jewell. Earlier ex Heritage's FUN Signature Auction of January 2012, lot 3541. PCGS# 6166.
