1803 Half Dime, MS63
Large 8, V-2, LM-3
Ex: D. Brent Pogue Collection
1803 H10C Large 8, V-2, LM-3, R.3, MS63 PCGS. Ex: D. Brent
Pogue Collection. LM-3 is the third and final die marriage for the
1803 date, as well as the most-available variety, although any 1803
half dime is extremely rare in mid-to-high Mint State. Examples
seldom exceed the VF level. This is a spectacular Select
Uncirculated coin, with only a few minor distractions and
attractive, colorful toning supported by vibrant and frosted mint
luster. Vivid cerulean-blue, violet, and amber-gold toning cede to
bright-gold centers on each side, with a strike that varies from
razor-sharp to bold -- weakening slightly on the lower curls, and
on a few of the central field stars. PLURIBUS is readable but a
touch weak, positioned opposite the blending of Liberty's lower
tresses. Struck from moderately clashed dies, the surfaces show
only a few other inconsistencies beneath a loupe -- a few hidden,
wayward hairlines and immaterial ticks. The eye appeal is simply
tremendous. Population (Large 8 varieties): 1 in 63, 3 finer
(5/23).Ex: Central States Signature (Heritage, 4/2020), lot 3679.
