Lot Description

The Bootheel Collection. Overton-116 features the popular Redbook "50 over 00" denomination on the reverse, and this is sufficient to finalize attribution of the die-marriage. A thin band of rainbow toning slips through the obverse left stars, and widens a bit through the right stars, directly into the date area. Negligible marks show on either side, but some subtle scrapes show in the folds of the Liberty cap.
