Description
1847-O Half Dollar, Toned MS65
WB-21, Doubled Die Obverse
1847-O 50C MS65 NGC. WB-21. Doubled Die Obverse. As
described in the Wiley-Bugert reference, the die doubling shows on
Liberty's left (facing) fingers, the left edge of the rock, the
left end of the scroll where it circles behind the shield, and the
first two sets of shield lines. The reverse has a large O mintmark,
and this is the only use of this reverse die. Beside the
interesting doubled die obverse, this Gem 1847-O half is among the
few finest in existence. NGC has certified five submissions in this
grade with two finer (10/12). Beautiful pinkish-gold and jade
colors permeate both sides, with generous luster and a sharp
strike.(Registry values: N4719)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 24HB, PCGS# 6259, GSID# 6324)
