Description

Early State 1814 O-106 Half Dollar, XF45

1814 50C XF45 PCGS. O-106, R.5. The third use of the obverse die following O-105 and O-105a. The heavy bars at the ear, a result of clash marks from the shield, are unmistakable. The second T in STATES is slightly low.
An early die state, showing only the final reverse crack of State a, from the border to the R and the wing. Both sides have heavy clash marks.
Both sides exhibit a blend of delicate gold, blue, sea-green, and yellow toning with underlying luster. A few minor handling marks on each side are consistent with the grade. The earlier die states of O-106 are scarce and this example probably ranks among the top half dozen.
From The Donald R. Frederick Collection of Early U.S. Coinage: Bayside Part II.
