Lot Description

Lot 1211 1821 Capped Bust Half O-104 Rarity 1.NGC graded MS-65.Nicely toned and well struck. A blazing beauty of a gem! The satiny surfaces are afire with bright volatile white cartwheel luster that looks as though it would like nothing better than to explode with a loud bang. Around the devices, delicate toning has formed serving to highlight the depth and detail of the design features. Well struck for the date and easily matching or surpassing others in this year. All stars firmly raised by the dies. Surfaces near-pristine in their ability to elude marks and other detriment over the last 191 years since it was made! Pop 1; none finer. The finest graded at NGC for the variety . Estimated Value $10,000 - 11,000. Ex: Eliasberg Collection.
