1807 Capped Bust Half Dollar, AU50
O-111b, 'Bearded Goddess' Variety
Rainbow Patina

1807 50C Capped Bust, Bearded Goddess, O-111b, R.5, AU50 PCGS Secure. CAC. Ex: Friend. The famous Overton marriage features a heavy die crack that connects Liberty's chin to the bust. The crack actually travels up as far as the eye and down to the ribbon end. It becomes thicker in later states, as here. The 5 in the denomination is punched over a previously entered 2. The "Bearded Goddess" variety was first included in the Guide Book in 2000 and has since become a popular series key. This example is colorfully toned in blue, rose, gold, and green patina. Moderate wear occurs on the portrait and the high points of the eagle's feathers. Faint hairlines appear in the fields, but significant abrasions are unseen.
