1809 Capped Bust Half Dollar, MS66
Sole Finest O-103

1809 50C Normal Edge, O-103, R.1, MS66 PCGS. Ex: Friend. Stephen Herrman lists three MS65 examples of the 1809 O-103 half dollar that have sold over the past 11 years. The highest-ranking example is a PCGS-graded Gem with CAC approval that he calls "Finest known?" Well, this MS66 is a superior example, at least in the eyes of PCGS, and should be considered the single finest O-103 representative. Visual quality and preservation are unmatched, with both sides showing scintillating mint luster and dusky golden patina. A lens reveals a tick on the upper cheek and a toning spot near star 9. Definition is strong, except on Liberty's ribbon and the eagle's head. Population: 1 in 66, 0 finer (11/19).
