1821 O-105a Half Dollar, MS65+
Ex: Eliasberg-Thomas-Friend

1821 50C O-105a, R.1, MS65+ PCGS Secure. CAC. Ex: Eliasberg-Friend. The last two date digits nearly touch, and a fine crack joins the top of TAT. An incredible Premium Gem with an illustrious pedigree, this piece has a fully prooflike obverse and a frosty, lustrous reverse. Both sides display splendid original reddish-gold toning with splashes of blue, green, and russet iridescence primarily near the borders. Arguably one of the finest, if not the finest known example of the variety. Formerly graded MS66 NGC, it is listed atop the Herrman Condition Census and represents the sole finest example on the Parsley Condition Census.
Ex: Louis E. Eliasberg, Sr. Collection, Part II (Bowers and Merena, 4/1997), lot 1779; Joseph C. Thomas Collection / Central States Signature (Heritage, 4/2009), lot 2425, where it brought $19,550.00.
