1806 O-124 Half Dollar, XF40
Rare E Over A in STATES
Challenging Guide Book Variety

1806 50C E Over A in STATES, O-124, T-22, High R.5, XF40 PCGS. The E in STATES is cut over an A, a demonstration of the difficulties involved in punching mirror image legends into working dies. O-124 is the sole 1806 E Over A marriage, and is second-rarest among the eight Guide Book varieties, trailing only the extremely rare O-108 Knob 6, No Stem variety. Stephen J. Herrman's Spring 2022 Condition Census is topped by an Uncertified AU50 with "many tiny pits" and three different XF40 PCGS examples, including the present piece. The moderately circulated and unblemished surfaces are toned powder-blue and cream-gray. The strike shows blending near the eagle's head. Population: 2 in 40, 0 finer (3/21).
Ex: Central States Signature (Heritage, 4/2021), lot 5036.
