Description

1807 50C Large Stars, 50 Over 20 Genuine PCGS. O-112, R.1. Obverse 9 has large stars with the bottom of the 1 complete. Reverse H is described at O-111a.
This is the usual early die state of the plentiful O-112 die marriage that remains popular for its blundered denomination. There are no cracks, but plain clash marks on both sides. A feature that Don Frederick described in his notes is the punctuation on the reverse. With the exception of Reverse I (1807 O-113), all 1807 and 1808 reverse dies have a small incused period following E PLURIBUS UNUM on the ribbon.
AU55 Details, Questionable Color. Splashes of deep brown toning appear over lighter olive and silver surfaces on both sides, with some faint accompanying hairlines that suggest this piece has been cleaned in the past.
From The Donald R. Frederick Collection of Early U.S. Coinage: Bayside Part II.
