Description
Finest Known 1811 O-107 Half Dollar, MS66
1811 50C Small 8 MS66 NGC. Ex: Kaufman. O-107, R.4. This scarce variety is a borderline rarity, and the present example is far the finest known. Herrman lists a few Mint State coins, including a single MS64 that is the finest offered in recent years, and that was nearly a decade ago. The present MS66 is a full two points finer. The obverse has a sharply doubled top to the final 1 in the date, and the reverse has several die cracks, including one from the eagle's neck into the upper right reverse field. Intense cartwheel luster with full mint frost is evident on both sides, beneath light brown patina with accompanying gold and blue accents.From The Joseph C. Thomas Collection.
