Lot Description

1836 Capped Bust Half Dollar. Lettered Edge. O-111. Rarity-3. MS-62 (PCGS). CAC. Lively mint frost blankets surfaces that are uncommonly smooth in hand for the assigned grade. Otherwise brilliant, rich copper-russet highlights ring the peripheries on both sides. With a bold to sharp strike and strong eye appeal, this premium quality BU example is an inviting Mint State type candidate from the final year of the Lettered Edge Capped Bust half dollar series.
