Description du lot

There are two die pairs of 1824 that feature the “4 over recut 4” feature: O.109 and O.110.  The O.109 is scarcer, esp. in higher grades.  Subtle shades of blue, rose, gold and aqua blanket the obverse.  The reverse is lightly toned.  Both sides exhibit extravagant luster.  The strike is crisp and the surfaces are lovely.  A thin “double profile” outlines the portrait, not unusual on half-dollars of this era.  Ex Dick Graham Collection, acquired privately in January 2010.  Est.  $3.500 to $4,000
