Description
Attractive 1826 O-120a Half, AU55
1826 50C AU55 PCGS. O-120a, Low R.4. The obverse die of O-119 and O-120 has the 26 in the date higher than the 18. The serif of the C in 50 C is recut on this reverse.The reverse has delicate peripheral die cracks as Overton describes.
This attractively toned Choice AU specimen has heather and iridescent patina over satiny silver luster. The surfaces exhibit the usual minor handling marks that are invariably found on these early half dollars. Faint traces of a double profile are evident, especially at the chin. Although well below the Condition Census, this piece is an attractive representative of O-120a.
From The Donald R. Frederick Collection of Early U.S. Coinage: Bayside Part II.
