1837 Reeded Edge Half, MS64
Vibrant Mint Luster, GR-19 Die Pair

1837 50C GR-19, R.3, MS64 PCGS. This scarce Reeded Edge variety is often misidentified because die markers are scant. Faint die clashing radiates from Liberty's chest -- an indicator of a middle die state -- while a lump and wriggling die line on the upper leaf of the central leaf pair help confirm the GR-19 attribution. The obverse die is unique to the variety, lacking recutting on the 7 seen on GR-20, which shares the same reverse. This highly lustrous near-Gem coin shows only minor die fatigue, with frosted surfaces and a sharp strike throughout both sides. Attractive gold toning deepens slightly to golden-tan on the reverse. Eye appeal is excellent.
