Description

1836 O-101a Half Dollar, MS65
Lettered Edge, Late Die State
Tied Finest of the Variety

1836 50C Lettered Edge, O-101a, R.1, MS65 PCGS. Ex: Friend. A die crack curves from the edge through the left (facing) wingtip, then crosses the top pair of olive leaves and travels to the eagle's leg. The uppermost points of star 6 are recut, as is the left upright of N in UNITED to confirm the O-101a variety. A sprinkling of golden-gray toning accompanies orange-gold and blue accents over lustrous, pearlescent Gem surfaces. A sharp strike weakens slightly at the left shield corner. This coin is tied at the top of the Condition Census for the die pair.
From The Dale Friend Collection of Bust Half Dollars, Part IV.
