Exquisite O-108 1833 Half Dollar, MS67

1833 50C MS67 NGC. Ex: Kaufman. O-108, R.1. The date is low and close to the rim with tightly spaced digits, and a point of star 7 points to the lower half of the headband. According to Overton-Parsley, "the mouth has a pleasant expression." The denomination 50C. has tall figures and is quite close to the claws and branch. This piece has an instant "wow" factor, a function of the extremely lustrous surfaces that nonetheless show deep jade, amber, lilac, and steel-blue hues. As demanded of the grade, surface contact is all but absent, and the overall eye appeal is enormous. Some light roller marks appear on the cheek, as made. The second finest known of the variety according to Herrman, behind an MS68 PCGS example.
