Description
1807 Capped Bust Half, AU55
Blundered Denomination, O-112
1807 50C Capped Bust, Large Stars, 50 Over 20, O-112, R.1, AU55
PCGS. Mint engravers were prone to errors when punching the
denomination into the working dies just as they were when entering
the dates into the dies. A large workload and, in the case of John
Reich and Robert Scot, failing eyesight may have contributed to the
blunders. Similar denomination errors are seen on 1822 and 1828
quarters, and on the 1818 half eagles. On Overton-112, a 2 was
mistakenly punched instead of a 5 (or is it an upside-down 5?),
then partially effaced and the correct numeral entered. This
colorfully toned About Uncirculated example displays Choice
surfaces and much remaining mint luster. The coin is sharply
defined and minimally marked throughout. Population: 45 in 55, 67
finer (3/17).Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 24EN, Variety PCGS# 39356, Base PCGS# 6086, Greysheet# 194144)
