Description
1834 Half Dollar, MS65+
O-104, Large Date, Small Letters
Finest-Known Example of the Variety
1834 50C Large Date, Small Letters, O-104, R.2, MS65+ PCGS Gold
Shield. Five die marriages make up the Large Date, Small
Letters Guide Book variety. Overton-104 is a rare die
marriage in high grade, with only a handful of pieces known in MS64
and MS65. The Stephen Herrman Census lists two MS65s tied for
finest. This Plus-graded piece surpasses them as the finest-known
O-104 half dollar. Struck from an early die state, this piece is
sharp throughout save for on a few border stars and on the left
edge of the shield. Vibrant cartwheel luster illuminates
well-preserved surfaces, and lovely peach-gold, lilac, sea-green,
and olive-gray toning covers each side. A loupe reveals no
bothersome abrasions. Population (Large Date, Small Letters): 18 in
65 (4 in 65+), 2 finer (1/19).Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 24FY, Variety PCGS# 39908, Base PCGS# 6165, Greysheet# 194417)
