Lot Description

1833 Capped Bust Half Dollar. O-104. Rarity-1. MS-64 (PCGS). Iridescent steel-blue and pale pink peripheral highlights frame otherwise pewter-gray surfaces. Both sides are lustrous, satin to softly frosted in texture, and are as nice as one would expect for the assigned grade. While this is a plentiful die marriage, the Herrman census (Autumn 2021) tops out in MS-64, making the offered coin a significant condition rarity worthy of serious bidder consideration. Provenance: From the Abigail Collection, Part II. PCGS# 6163. NGC ID: 24FX. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
