Description
Extremely Rare 1823 O-113 Half
1823 50C Genuine PCGS. O-113, Low R.7. The PCGS number ending in .92 suggests Cleaning as the reason, or perhaps one of the reasons, that PCGS deemed this coin not gradable. In our opinion, this coin has the details of a Fine specimen that has been lightly cleaned.The obverse of O-113 has two points of star 8 extremely close to the cap and actually appearing to touch. That position is closer than any other 1823 variety, and an instant identifier for this extremely rare variety. Only 10 or 11 examples exist in various circulated grades up to XF45, the finest known. This piece has light gray surfaces that are beginning to naturally retone, with deeper color around the peripheral devices. Both sides have scattered marks consistent with the grade, and the reverse has a tiny rim bump over ER of AMERICA.
