Lot Description

1820/19 Capped Bust Half Dollar. O-101. Rarity-1. Square Base 2. MS-61 (PCGS). CAC. A very nice example, in a high grade for this elusive variety. Both the obverse and reverse are well struck and highly lustrous with medium to deeper blue-gray and golden toning seen on both sides. Under low power magnification the overdate feature is particularly evident in the third digit of the date. As a basic year, the 1820 is considered to be the scarcest of its era. PCGS# 39572.
