Description du lot

Ex Charles Link, as noted on the PCGS label.  Fiery luster permeates the untoned surfaces.  There are virtually no signs of contact and not a hint of friction on this near Condition Census coin.  Both sides exhibit light to moderate clash marks, typical of half-dollars struck between 1810 and 1815.  Acquired directly from Dr. Link in March 2016.  The O.107 die pair (in a later die state) was used to strike the legendary platinum half-dollars of 1814, J. 44, of which 2 or 3 are known.  Est. $4,000 to $5,000
