1827 Half Dollar, Gem Uncirculated
Challenging O-121, Square Base 2

1827 50C Square Base 2, O-121, R.3, MS65 PCGS. CAC. Ex: Link. Of the 49 varieties known for 1827 Bust halves, only four die pairs show the second A in AMERICA nearly touching the adjacent arrowhead. The O-121 is one of those few varieties, and it is the only one that shows recutting at the lower-right base of A in STATES. This Gem example displays medium dove-gray and autumn-gold toning that is slightly deeper on the obverse. Lustrous and well preserved surfaces include mostly bold centers and occasional soft definition on peripheral elements. The legendary Eliasberg PR68 example is the finest O-121 known, but among circulation strikes the present piece leads the Condition Census for the variety.
