1861-O CSA Obverse Die Crack Half, AU58
Deep Peripheral Toning

1861-O 50C CSA Obverse AU58 ANACS. WB-102. This advanced die state is identifiable as the Confederate obverse by "a die crack from Liberty's nose to the rim slightly to the right of the 7th star." The crack is definitely present, but the deep blue and russet peripheral toning almost renders it invisible. Otherwise, the coin is sharply struck and the glossy surfaces retain much original mint luster. The CSA die crack and the CSA restrike halves are about as close as most of us will ever get to owning one of the four original CSA halves.
