1850-O Half Dollar, MS65
Important Condition Rarity
1850-O 50C MS65 PCGS. CAC. The 1850-O is a difficult
acquisition in Mint State, where Randy Wiley and Bill Bugert (1993)
assign the date a low R.5. PCGS has certified about 60 Mint State
examples, mainly through near-Gem. Gems are very rare and finer
examples are nearly unobtainable.The grayish-purple surfaces of this MS65 coin are blushed with cobalt-blue patination overlying strong luster. An exacting strike imparts bold definition to the design elements, and close inspection of the well preserved surfaces reveals no significant marks. Die rust is visible on parts of Liberty's portrait, not unusual for a New Orleans issue. Excellent overall eye appeal. Population: 5 in 65, 2 finer (11/11).(Registry values: N4719)
