Lot Description
1814 Capped Bust Half Dollar. O-104a. Rarity-2. MS-64 (PCGS). Secure Holder. This important coin is Condition Census #2 for the die state behind an NGC MS-65 listed in the Spring 2010 revision to <em>Auction &amp; Mail Bid Prices Realized for Bust Half Dollars: 1794-1839 </em>by Stephen J. Herrman. Satiny, silver-tinged surfaces are expectably smooth at the near-Gem grade level. Boldly struck in all but a few isolated areas, this coin presents very well in all regards for an early date Capped Bust Half Dollar.
