Description

Appealing 1827 O-133 Half, AU55

1827 50C Square Base 2 AU55 PCGS. O-133, R.4. The obverse die appears on O-131, 132, and 133. Nearly all of the stars are recut on O-131, but only remnants remain on O-132 and 133. The most obvious recutting is the outer point of star 7. The reverse has a faint die line in the field just right of the feathers above the right most claw.
Struck from lightly flowlined and faintly clash marked, but otherwise perfect, obverse and reverse dies.
Peripheral gold and iridescent toning accompanies the natural gray-gold surfaces on both sides of this spectacular piece. Although it misses the Condition Census, the present Choice AU representative has excellent eye appeal.
From The Donald R. Frederick Collection of Early U.S. Coinage: Bayside Part II.
