1806 Draped Bust Half Dollar, MS64
O-109a, Pointed 6, No Stem

1806 50C Pointed 6, No Stem, O-109a, T-15, R.3, MS64 PCGS. Ex: O'Neal. Tompkins Die State 6/3, with extensive clashing and obverse cracks. The radial crack through star 12 toward the bust distinguishes the O-109a subvariety from the earlier O-109 die state. Additional cracks run along the bottom of the date and through the left-hand stars. O-109 is the only 1806 die pairing that employs the Pointed 6 obverse type with the No Stem reverse. An example of this die marriage is essential for a complete Guide Book collection. The present near-Gem is tied with one other MS64 coin for second-finest O-109a half dollar on Stephen Herrman's Condition Census. Luster is vibrant throughout each side, yielding rich shades of sea-green, blue, lavender, russet, and gold toning. The devices are well struck, and notable weakness is seen only the left-hand stars. No major abrasions are present. Eye appeal is stunning. Population: 3 in 64, 1 finer (11/22).
