Lot 973
1817 Capped Bust Half Dollar. 7 over 3. EF-40. This coin has good eye appeal and some luster near the devices. However, close examination notes light surface scratches across the high points of the obverse which appear fresh in nature. In time, the coin should continue to tone and these will not be as distracting. One of the most visible overdates in American numismatics, the 7/3 feature is plain to the unaided eye. We note a very late die state with extensive clashing, including ERICA through the last few stars, the denomination above Liberty's cap, wings from the eagle in the field, and rusted dies in evidence.
Estimated Value $500 - 600.
