Description du lot

Wisps of russet, steel-blue and mauve enliven a base of pearl-gray patina on both sides of this richly original example. This is a sharply struck and satiny near-Gem that will please discerning collectors. Stephen J. Herrman in the Spring 2025 revision to his <em>Auction & Mail Bid Prices Realized for Bust Half Dollars: 1794-1839</em> enumerates one example each in MS-65 and MS-64+ as CC#1 and #2 for the 1823 O-110 attribution. A number of MS-64s follow as tied for CC#3, which includes this relative newcomer to the modern numismatic market from our April 2022 sale of the Abigail Collection. Die State 110.2.
