Description
1833 Bust Half Dollar, MS66+
Second-Finest O-108
1833 50C O-108, R.1, MS66+ PCGS. CAC. Rich ocean-blue,
autumn-brown, butter-gold, and violet-red toning encompasses this
remarkably unabraded representative. The strike is bold throughout.
Overton-108 is often attributed by the extension of the lowest
horizontal shield line into the right (facing) wing. The present
lot is the former Philip Kaufman specimen, auctioned by Heritage as
lot 2447 in our April 2009 Central States Signature, at the time in
an MS67 NGC holder. It is the second-finest known example of the
variety, exceeded in grade solely by an MS68 PCGS coin that last
appeared at auction in January 2005.Ex: ANA Signature (Heritage, 8/1996), lot 7240; The Leonard J. Torok, M.D. Collection (Bowers and Merena, 9/1998), lot 2113; The Kaufman Collection; The Joseph C.
