Lot Description

1827 Capped Bust Half Dollar. O-120a. Rarity-3. Square Base 2. MS-62 (PCGS). This pretty example is attractively toned in mottled iridescence, the boldest and most vivid colors confined to the peripheries. Satiny surfaces are uncommonly smooth for the assigned grade, and the strike is pleasingly sharp for the type. Premium quality at the MS-62 level, this coin would do equally well in a Mint State type set or advanced collection of Capped Bust half dollar varieties. PCGS# 39718. NGC ID: 24FN.
