1831 Capped Bust Half Dime, MS68
V-3, LM-7, Incredible Toning
Ex: Simpson-Bender

1831 H10C V-3, LM-7, R.2, MS68 PCGS. Ex: Simpson-Bender. What is perhaps the most visually stunning coin in the sale is also the sole-finest 1831 half dime at PCGS. This unforgettably toned V-3, LM-7 half dime exists in its own universe, its outer reaches toned cobalt blue, transitioning to electric blue, dotted with magenta and plum accents. The portrait shines forth like the sun, with gold and orange colors over the frosted face of Liberty. Beneath the vibrant toning, a sharp strike exists and Liberty's cheek is virtually free of imperfection. The obverse stars are fully formed and bold detail exists beneath the reverse toning. This coin is an eyeful, and is sure to serve as a memorable capstone to the most advanced Capped Bust half dime set. Population: 1 in 68, 0 finer (7/22).
