Description
Lustrous 1826 O-114 Half, AU55
1826 50C AU55 PCGS. O-114, High R.4. A nearly vertical line crossing the top four crossbars at the left is diagnostic.Although there are no cracks or clash marks, the obverse has only partial border dentils, and the reverse has only a trace of border details visible, the result of worn or well used dies. A tiny die chip is visible in the angle of the N in UNITED.
This Choice AU example has incredible frosty mint luster with a frame of gold and iridescent border toning around otherwise brilliant silver surfaces. Only four finer coins have been sold in recent auctions. This piece ranks in the Condition Census of the variety, as does the next.
From The Donald R. Frederick Collection of Early U.S. Coinage: Bayside Part II.
