Description

1846-O 50C MS64 PCGS. Medium Date, a.k.a. Small Date. Golden-brown and magenta toning covers both sides of this lustrous coin and lightens to gunmetal-blue at the rims. Because of die polishing, just a trace of the drapery can be seen off of Liberty's elbow. The polishing has also attenuated the vertical shield stripes on the reverse.
