Lot Description

1823 Capped Bust Half Dollar. O-106a. Rarity-2. AU-58 (PCGS). Retro OGH. A fully original, attractively toned example with reddish-russet, olive-copper and cobalt blue colors that are boldest around the peripheries. Lustrous with modest semi-reflective tendencies evident in the fields, especially on the obverse. The popular Tampered 3 die state of the 1823 O-106 dies, the digit 3 in the date has been slightly modified by Mint personnel. For the assigned grade, it is difficult for us to imagine a more desirable example. Provenance: Ex Pedram Collection. PCGS# 39610. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
