Lot Description

1830 Capped Bust Half Dollar. O-117. Rarity-2. Small 0. MS-60 (PCGS). OGH--Second Generation. Lustrous and quite pleasing for the flecks of lemon-gold and russet toning around the rims. The strike is better than average and the surfaces clean save for light evidence of handling. One small toning speck at the top of Liberty's neck. Considerably finer than one might expect for the modest grade, but the market will decide this nicely.
