Description
Rare Overton-137 1827 Bust Half Dollar, XF45
1827 50C Square Base 2 XF45 NGC. O-137, R.6. Most easily attributed by the reverse: The I is centered below the bases of AT, die marks resembling three or four extra wing feathers reside in the field area between the eagle's right (facing) wing and the RI of AMERICA, and there is a die defect above S and O, close to the dentil segments. This piece would rank as one of the five finest examples on the Condition Census, according to Stephen Herrman's records. Deep layers of brown-gray and forest-green patina cover both sides, with some dark-green specks occurring on the fields and central devices. Only a slight degree of wear limits the grade, and there are no distracting abrasions. A rare die variety that has only been offered by Heritage once or twice before. An example in our Reiver sale of January 2006 sold for $13,800.00. (Registry values: N491)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 24FN, PCGS# 6144, GSID# 6184)
