Lot Description

1807 Capped Bust Half Dollar. O-113. Rarity-2. Small Stars. VF-30 (PCGS). CAC. Blended sandy-gray and olive-charcoal patina blankets both sides of this richly original example. Overall bold mid grade detail remains from a well centered strike, mentionable softness confined to the inside of the eagle's right wing, typical of the variety. This is the first year of production for the design type, one that has proved popular with specialized collectors for decades. As an evenly circulated, overall smooth-looking Choice VF, the present example will also appeal to type collectors. Provenance: From the E. Horatio Morgan Collection. PCGS# 6087.
