Description
Rare 1825 Half Dollar, MS62, O-109
1825 50C MS62 PCGS. O-109, R.5. This variety is distinguished by the high 2 in the date, as well as the I in PLURIBUS centered under the AT in STATES. Overton writes that the As are also exceptionally large. Interestingly, this piece also shows pronounced machine doubling, with a shadow of Liberty slightly to the left of the second strike. Mostly brilliant, this half dollar exhibits attractive, cartwheel luster throughout. The stars on the right side are soft, as often seen, but the rest of the details are sharply struck. There are no marks worthy of mention. An interesting and seldom encountered variety. According to Stephen Herrman's list of finest known examples, the top coins for this scarce variety are (64/64 multiples, 63/63, 58/58).(Registry values: N1793)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 24FL, PCGS# 6142, GSID# 6180)
