Lot Description

A wealth of satin luster survives under gold, russet, olive, and azure hues. Well struck and very attractive for the grade. A GEM AU that sat undisturbed for many many years and lovingly cared for by an old time collector. It is time to put this coin into another great collection of early half dollars. There is only a single Overton number, O-109 for this Red Book variety. PCGS 19, NGC 6, CAC 5. The current Collector's Universe value is $4,000, but PCGS/CAC coins have sold for well above that, the most recent at the 2017 ANA auction for $4,588. A beautiful example, one that would make a fine addition to any high quality early half dollar set. Cert. Number 27873284 PCGS # 6073
