Description
1837 GR-23 Half Dollar, MS65
Splendidly Toned, Ideal Type Coin
1837 50C GR-23, R.2, MS65 PCGS. A radial die crack from the
rim to the outer point of star 10 is seen under a loupe, and a
series of "beard" clash marks below Liberty's chin are diagnostic
for GR-23. This lustrous and well-preserved Bust half displays
splendid toning. The blue-green borders and golden-brown interiors
are reminiscent of silver coins long stored in Wayte Raymond
holders. GR-23 is a readily available die pair, although it seldom
exceeds the Choice Uncirculated grade. Gem Mint State examples are
scarce in the Reeded Edge series regardless of date or variety.
This example is sharply struck at the centers, although as usual
for the variety the right-side stars show weakness -- a
characteristic easily forgiven based on the tremendous eye appeal.Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 24G4, Variety PCGS# 531073, Base PCGS# 6176, GSID# 377702)
