Lot Description

1836 Capped Bust Half Dollar. Lettered Edge. O-120. Rarity-4-. MS-63 (PCGS). OGH. An attractive and mostly brilliant example with a dusting of original patina throughout. Olive and charcoal shades accent the borders in certain areas. Typically struck for the variety, with some minor central weakness on each side. A couple of small marks are also noted on the obverse. Satiny in the fields and quite smooth beneath a glass. O-120 is a somewhat scarcer die pairing. PCGS# 6169. NGC ID: 24G2. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
