1794 O-101a Half Dollar, Fine 15
In an Old Green Label Holder

1794 50C O-101a, T-7, High R.3, Fine 15 PCGS. Tompkins Die State 1/4. Die engraved by Robert Scot. Of the 11 die marriages of the 1794 half dollar, Overton-101 (and its late die state variant, O-101a) is the only one usually obtainable, albeit, for a price. Some Mint State examples are known, although the majority of the population is heavily circulated and/or impaired. This midgrade circulated coin displays excellent detail for the grade, including a strong central reverse. Lavender-gray patina is original and even. A loupe reveals a couple of faint, old pinscratches in the obverse fields that resemble the letter M -- they are invisible to the unaided eye. Housed in an old green label holder.
From The Terry Brand Estate, Part III
