1850-O Half Dime, MS67
The Finest Certified
From the Gene Gardner Collection

1850-O H10C MS67 PCGS. CAC. Large O. V-2. Ex: Bender Collection. This variety appears to be Valentine-2, identified by: a faint die crack through most of the stars; defects between stars 10 and 11; a round, fat O mintmark; and a die crack extending from each serif of U in UNITED to the rim, precursor to a rim cud that develops in a later die state that eventually covers part of the U.

Partially prooflike fields highlight the frosty design elements of this magnificent Premium Gem. This contrast is accented by the softly toned russet fields and the deeper gray devices, all of which are sharply struck. There are no post-strike contact marks of consequence. A small toning spot near the rim below Liberty's foot and another beneath the right stand of H in HALF will help to pedigree the coin. Population: 1 in 67, 0 finer. CAC: 1 in 67, 0 finer (3/23).
